My Longevity Simulation Chapter 1432: The Great Dao Manifests Its Form

The so called Dao Comprehension Point in the Dreamland Paradise was actually the Dao insights obtained by Dharma-Transmitter Jiang through the characteristic of [The Great Dao Is Like Me].

There was merely a wall separating them.

The efficiency of Dharma-Transmitter Jiang's Dao comprehension had not changed. What had changed was the environment itself. Simply put, cultivation outside the High Wall was generally many times easier than cultivation within the High Wall.

Just as Li Fan had previously speculated, as long as one could embark on the path of cultivation through one's own ability, even an ordinary cultivator could be considered a heavenly prodigy outside the High Wall!

And this was only the beginning.

Li Fan keenly noticed that after coming into contact with the environment outside the High Wall, Dharma-Transmitter Jiang's Dao comprehension efficiency within the Heaven-Communing Grand Formation was slowly increasing.

His long term comprehension of the Great Dao had finally begun to nourish him in return.

Li Fan synchronized with the other's sensations. The Heaven-Communing Great Dao that he looked up at from below seemed to gradually change from gray and white into something vibrant and colorful.

"Is this the difference between the land where the Great Dao is annihilated and a normal environment?" Even Li Fan was momentarily stunned by this magnificent sight.

A voice sounded beside Li Fan's ear, interrupting his thoughts.

Li Fan turned his head and looked at the blue figure beside him.

It was Chen Tianhai of the Taiyan Sect!

"I can feel that the influence of the demonic voice on me seems to have intensified again. My past memories are becoming clearer. Even though I have personally witnessed the appearance of Dharma-transmitting Immortal Ancestor being suppressed. Even though I already know that those memories were merely altered."

"Yet that glimpse from back then is still like a nightmare, haunting me relentlessly." Chen Tianhai's figure trembled uncontrollably.

Li Fan did not respond. Instead, he tried silently reciting the Scripture Chanting Demonic Sound in his heart.

It was as if an invisible force pierced through the Dreamland Paradise, establishing a faint connection between him and the world beyond the High Wall.

The mysterious melodies became much clearer.

Li Fan's heart tightened. As a counterbalance, he immediately began silently reciting the Immortal Scripture of Protection originating from the Grand Mage.

"The Dao is born, passed down since primordial antiquity. Through sorrow and hardship, the Dao is extinguished."

...

The two voices resonated with each other, and the influence of the Scripture Chanting Demonic Sound was immediately diluted considerably. But compared with simply being within the High Wall, the harmonizing effect of the Immortal Scripture of Protection was clearly much weaker.

It was gradually becoming impossible to compare with that mysterious and unfathomable demonic voice.

"Xuanyuan Hong..." Li Fan's expression became inscrutable.

Back then, Immortal Ancestor had sought survival in the midst of death. He had relied precisely on the power of that whispering voice, which seemed to be innate to the Xuanyuan Clan, to influence and alter the memories of Chen Tianhai of the Taiyan Sect, who had merely met him once.

Relying on the deductions of the Dao Deviation Stone Mother, he found a method to kill many Longevity Immortal cultivators of the Ten Great Immortal Sects.

Although Immortal Ancestor had been suppressed by Li Fan, the mark of that whispering voice left within Chen Tianhai had not disappeared.

When Chen Tianhai also came outside the High Wall with the power of the Dreamland Paradise, its influence erupted once again. Even though Chen Tianhai had already become informationalized and had become part of the Dao Deviation Stone Mother, he still could not escape it.

"Part of this is because the Great Dao has become more distinct. The profound sounds that depict the Great Dao through musical tones have naturally been strengthened as well. If one were to write True Immortal seal script, its might would presumably also be amplified several times over."

"But that is not the only reason."

"The extent of its enhancement is far too great. Both are paths of musical tones, yet the Immortal Scripture of Protection has never been strengthened to such an exaggerated degree..."

The faint whispering beside his ear appeared and disappeared intermittently.

After thinking it over again and again, Li Fan could only attribute it to that missing Xuantian King.

Five years ago, when Li Fan went to the Taiyan Sect and met Chen Tianhai.

With a single sentence, he had exposed the truth behind the demonic voice corroding him.

At first, Chen Tianhai had refused to believe that his memories had always been altered by someone else. It was not until Li Fan imparted the Immortal Scripture of Protection and used it to counteract the force of the alteration.

After recovering his true memories, Chen Tianhai had been struck as if by lightning and remained silent for a long time.

"It is not that you were inadequate. How could a mortal possibly be immune to the methods of immortals?"

Only Li Fan's words had allowed Chen Tianhai to truly free himself from the suffering of his past.

Naturally, the reason Li Fan had gone to the Taiyan Sect was for that Dao Deviation Stone Mother.

After helping Chen Tianhai break free from the nightmare that had tormented him for ten thousand years, Li Fan had used a combination of intimidation and temptation to make the Taiyan Sect submit.

Now, this Dao Deviation Stone Mother was within Li Fan's sea of consciousness.

However, after studying it for some time, Li Fan did not choose to directly fuse it with the supreme-grade Dao Deviation Stone in his mind.

Back then, after the entire Taiyan Sect had chosen to become informationalized and merge into the Dao Deviation Stone Mother, countless thoughts and consciousnesses had fused with the Stone Mother and become extremely difficult to separate. They had become inherent characteristics of the Dao Deviation Stone Mother itself.

Li Fan had no confidence that he could erase these thoughts without damaging the Stone Mother.

If he were to devour it directly...

The strength of the Stone Mother was countless times greater than that of the supreme-grade Dao Deviation Stone.

The thoughts of the Taiyan Sect's members within the Stone Mother were even more likely to contaminate the Dao Deviation Stone possessed by Li Fan.

Although Li Fan could forcibly remove these thoughts afterward.

Deep within the Dao Deviation Stone Mother, however, there was still a rather peculiar consciousness hidden and dormant, one that even Li Fan, as a Half Immortal, found quite troublesome.

Moreover, now that Li Fan had mastered the Transformation Between Truth and Falsehood, he no longer needed to crudely devour it in order to increase his strength.

Around the Dao Deviation Stone Mother in his sea of consciousness.

Countless threads flew in from the void, touching, analyzing, and comprehending the essence of the Dao Deviation Stone Mother.

And deep within the sea of consciousness, in a place isolated from the other regions.

Another crystal, exactly identical in appearance to the Dao Deviation Stone Mother, was silently floating there. However, it seemed to exist in an ethereal, mist like state, flickering indistinctly.

It was precisely the Dao Deviation Stone Mother that Li Fan had "copied" through the Transformation Between Truth and Falsehood.

Having already successfully recreated Ancient Cang Primal Essence, his own cultivation, and even the Azure Firmament Pearl, Li Fan had originally thought that recreating this Dao Deviation Stone Mother would also be effortless.

But what he had not expected was that recreating this crystal was even dozens of times more difficult than recreating the immortal artifact Azure Firmament Pearl.

When recreating the Azure Firmament Pearl, he only needed to have three times his cultivation added to himself. Although it was somewhat strenuous, he could ultimately succeed.

But when facing the Dao Deviation Stone Mother, brute force seemed to have lost its effectiveness.

After several failures, Li Fan came to understand that it was not because his own strength was insufficient. Rather, his understanding of the Dao Deviation Stone Mother had not yet reached the minimum requirement needed to recreate it.

This was a first for Li Fan.

In the past, when he used the Transformation Between Truth and Falsehood, he had never needed to meet any requirements regarding his understanding of the essence of an object.

However, after carefully comprehending it and communicating with [Truth] through considerable difficulty, Li Fan ultimately understood why.

To put it simply, all things that Li Fan could see completely at a glance could be temporarily recreated through the Transformation Between Truth and Falsehood.

This principle still held true for the Dao Deviation Stone Mother.

The reason his attempts to recreate it had failed was that Li Fan had not been able to see the Stone Mother "in its entirety."

This was also the reason Li Fan had sealed the Stone Mother within his sea of consciousness, observing it day and night without pause.

He had opened up a separate region, so the Stone Mother could not spy on his memories.

At the same time, the people of the Taiyan Sect could leave Li Fan's sea of consciousness from this region at any time and enter the real world.

Now, Li Fan was already capable of reproducing the Dao Deviation Stone Mother. By continuously applying the stacking method and strengthening the Dao Deviation Stone within his sea of consciousness, he had naturally also managed to see the Stone Mother in its entirety.

Through his communication with the Stone Mother during this period, Li Fan also understood why, despite being a Half Immortal, he had been unable to "see" the Stone Mother's complete form at a single glance.

"Dao Deviation Stone Mother, Dao Deviation Stone Mother."

With a thought from Li Fan, the illusory Stone Mother he had reproduced transformed into a mass of radiance and attached itself to the Dao Deviation Stone.

He circulated the improved Dao Transformation Divine Unity Secret Technique, rapidly absorbing the incomparably pure energy within it.

The illusory Stone Mother reproduced by Li Fan contained none of the Taiyan Sect's consciousness. It did not even contain the mysterious consciousness hidden within the true Stone Mother. It was merely the Stone Mother itself in its purest form. Therefore, it could be absorbed without restraint.

Although each Transformation Between Truth and Falsehood left behind only a tiny amount of residue, the Dao Deviation Stone Mother was simply too miraculous. Every time he used it, the quality of the Dao Deviation Stone within Li Fan's sea of consciousness could increase severalfold.

Within ten years, Li Fan had already completed nearly a hundred cycles of reproduction and stacking.

At this moment, the Dao Deviation Stone in his mind was already not much weaker than the real Stone Mother.

Thus, he had also developed a vague conjecture regarding the essence of the Dao Deviation Stone Mother.

This extraordinary treasure from beyond the heavens might actually be a direct manifestation of the Great Dao itself!

It was the same principle as the Primeval Transformation of the demon beast race.

However, Primeval Transformation represented only a single Great Dao. As for the Dao Deviation Stone Mother...

Li Fan guessed that it might even be a collection of all complete Great Daos!

It was just that the possibility from which the Dao Deviation Stone Mother originated was far weaker than the one Li Fan was familiar with.

Furthermore, having endured the Dao Annihilation Calamity and weathered the baptism of crossing through different possibilities.

The Stone Mother had therefore been further weakened.

Thus, even though it was a manifestation of complete Great Daos, in terms of might, it could not even compare to an ordinary Nameless True Immortal.

Of course, all of the above were merely Li Fan's speculations based on his own insights while reproducing the Stone Mother.

The only memories remaining within the Dao Deviation Stone Mother consisted of seemingly endless, desperate flight to evade some kind of calamity, before it eventually arrived in the Xuanhuang Realm by a stroke of fate. It was subsequently discovered by the Taiyan Sect.

Li Fan speculated that the reason the Dao Deviation Stone Mother had severed itself completely from its past was precisely to evade the pursuit of the Dao Annihilation Calamity.

Although the Stone Mother had lost its memories of the past, from the terrifying calamity it sensed, Li Fan could still detect traces of the ominous aura of the Dao Annihilation Calamity.

Li Fan had considerable confidence in his deduction. After all, within the entire mortal world, what could possibly force a crystallized body of a complete Great Dao to flee in such a panic?

And the Dao Deviation Stone Mother had arrived in the Xuanhuang Realm by "coincidence."

This reminded Li Fan once again of the scene he had seen in the memories of a True Immortal.

"This Xuanhuang Realm must still possess some extraordinary mysteries that I have yet to discover."

"It is capable of attracting numerous strange existences to cross through spacetime, and even traverse different possibilities, to arrive here."

"Even my own transmigration..."

The discovery that the Dao Deviation Stone Mother had come from another possibility also caused Li Fan to develop some doubts regarding his own transmigration.

Although he had no particular nostalgia for the days before his transmigration, nor did he have any strong desire to return.

What Li Fan cared about was the crucial question of whether the awakening of [Truth] had occurred within the body of this possibility, meaning that he had merely occupied another person's body.

Or whether it had occurred within himself.

As he continued to develop and utilize the Transformation Between Truth and Falsehood, Li Fan's horizons and state of mind had undergone an extremely subtle change compared with before.

In the past, whenever Li Fan encountered rare treasures of the mortal world, he would inevitably develop the desire to make them his own. Sometimes it was greed, and sometimes it was simply to increase his own ability to preserve his life.

But now, this desire to possess things had gradually faded.

What he thought of was merely analyzing and understanding.

After all, with the Transformation Between Truth and Falsehood in his possession, as long as he wished, he could transform any treasure into countless copies at any time.

Now, the only thing Li Fan truly wanted to possess.

Was [Truth] itself.

...

His myriad thoughts came to an end along with the fusion of yet another illusory Dao Deviation Stone Mother.

Li Fan only felt that his thoughts were now operating much faster.

His attention once again returned to the mysterious and unfathomable demonic voice beside his ears.

After Li Fan's reminder, based on the Immortal Ancestor's memories from the past, the Stone Mother had repeatedly reviewed the memories countless times and reached a conclusion.

The lingering whispering voice should have been the work of the Xuantian King.

But it was not a contingency left behind in an attempt to resurrect after death.

Rather, it was a natural change produced in his bloodline descendants after the source of their bloodline had entered an inconceivable state.

One piece of evidence was that the influence of the demonic voice on the Xuanyuan Clan had grown increasingly stronger.

It reached its peak with Xuanyuan Sheng.

Xuanyuan Sheng simply could not withstand it any longer and wanted to sever this influence completely.

Yet he still could not prevent the demonic voice from appearing within Xuanyuan Hong.

And after arriving beyond the High Wall, the demonic voice became even stronger.

The Dao Deviation Stone Mother's deduction seemed to have received confirmation from another angle.

"After the Xuantian King mysteriously disappeared back then, he not only did not die, but instead advanced even further?"

This conjecture caused Li Fan's thoughts to run wild.

After seeing the Darkened Heavenly Doctor and Evil Su Bai, there had always been a thought in Li Fan's mind that seemed ready to emerge.

Yet he had never been able to understand what it was.

Only after the Dao Deviation Stone Mother's conjecture appeared did this thought finally take root and sprout, ultimately surfacing in his mind.

The Darkened Heavenly Doctor and Evil Su Bai both came from an extremely special possibility.

Then could the possibility Li Fan currently inhabited have likewise given birth to an unknowable powerhouse capable of crossing between possibilities?

If such a possibility truly existed.

Then, among the history Li Fan currently knew, the person who most resembled someone holding the protagonist's script might be that Xuantian King.

After all, he was the final ascender before the destruction of the Immortal Realm.

His legend was simply too extraordinary.

"Perhaps beyond the High Wall, there are other figures even more heaven defying."

"But regardless, someone whose methods can cross the High Wall and traverse the past and present cannot be left without precautions."

"The stronger they are, the more likely they are to know of the existence of [Truth]."

When Li Fan comes into contact with such people, he must be even more careful to conceal himself.

"I wonder whether the Xuantian King still has any other bloodline descendants within the Xuanhuang Realm.”
