My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 2299 - 1722: The Invisible Net Descends
"As true as false, who can discern, who can know?"
"The world Mr. Fan just projected has reached the realm of extreme illusion, surpassing the ordinary meaning of [simulation]." Lord Guardian Hill seemed still immersed in the simulated scene, sighing in admiration.
The morality was also amazed: "The True and False Dao, so mysterious. Rather than calling it a simulation, it is indeed a real world. Only it exists within Mr. Fan’s Spirit Consciousness, arising and dissipating at will."
"From the information currently grasped, that enigmatic Mountain and Sea Walker indeed may be Qiu Tianhui. Walking through mountain and sea, overlooking the entire situation. What he plans is quite significant."
Li Fan smiled: "Let them fight over it! With the True and False Changes in hand, we almost stand invincible. Just follow the steps and we can smoothly go to the beginning of Mountain Sea. Even the matter of Divine Split can be investigated!"
...
The trio with Li Fan secretly exchanged thoughts, while in the Xuanji Ring on the Other Shore, All Saints were also discussing fervently.
Originally intended to trace the clues and find the hidden location of Qiu Tianhui and his wife. Unexpectedly, they had already incarnated and escaped.
Yet they left two thoughts, anchoring them.
Though not their true self, it still involves the secret of Mountain and Sea Living Beings.
If they fall into the hands of the Void Realm, Mountain Sea might suddenly fall into a critical situation.
Ultimately, Saint Lianshan and the Three Saints made a decision.
"No matter what, the importance of the mountain and sea ahead is undeniable. The Void Realm is heavily besieging, if we openly join forces, it might provoke intense resistance. Since we discovered the vein they left, we can use it to infiltrate."
"Suppress and protect these two, ensure their safety, and then we will initiate the alliance from the downstream of Mountain Sea. The inside and outside cooperate to break the siege of the Void Realm!"
The three Saints of Lianshan speaking, then focused their gaze on the Stealing Mechanism.
"The lucky one among the Living Beings, only you in the field..."
Stealing Mechanism showed no unusual expression, nodded in agreement: "I just wanted to meet them."
"After you go, you need to maintain your true heart unchanged, with the broader Mountain and Sea situation in mind." Saint Lianshan advised with deep meaning.
Then, watched by All Saints, Stealing Mechanism suddenly closed his eyes.
The originally attached baby body dispersed like light points.
Floating in the Void, following the invisible Mountain and Sea Veins, struggling upstream towards the source Mountain Sea.
Trembling, moving with extreme difficulty.
Each segment of distance traveled, the gathered light points dissipated slightly.
By the time finally successfully infiltrating the Mountain Sea ahead, it has become exceptionally dim, almost no different from an ordinary Mortal.
"It seems, the innate rejection of external things by the Mountain and Sea Living Beings Dao is indeed quite exceptional. The power Stealing Mechanism was attached to has been mostly expended. After descending to Mountain Sea ahead, he probably won’t have the strength of a Saint anymore. He will become no different from a Mortal." All Saints watching, all slightly shook their heads.
"The main thing is whether the Stealing Mechanism Daoist can retain his memory. If he can, with his ability, even if he revives from the Mortal realm, it’s just a matter of talking and laughing." Gui Ming is very confident in the Stealing Mechanism Saint.
"Let’s observe it."
The true Stealing Mechanism was as unmoving as a stone statue, other Saints patiently awaited changes.
After an unknown amount of time, as if seeing something, Saint Lianshan suddenly spoke again: "No need to wait idly. Let’s proceed with the bait tactic again. If the Stealing Mechanism fails, there’s still room to turn back."
All Saints heard, their hearts immediately shivered.
Though not explicitly said, the meaning in the words was already very clear. This action of the Stealing Mechanism is very likely to fail. Need to make alternative plans early.
"Wonder what Lianshan saw?"
Li Fan also felt a bit puzzled in his heart.
He had fought with the Stealing Mechanism Saint before, knew well about his mentality and perseverance, all top-notch among Mountain and Sea Living Beings.
It shouldn’t be a failure.
Though doubts arose, it didn’t hinder All Saints from spreading the living bait again.
In an instant, starlight dotted, countless new living beings began to be nurtured again.
This time the lucky winner was Bai Xiao Saint.
Only saw him muttering to himself in a displeased tone.
Just at this moment, the Stealing Mechanism Saint suddenly opened his eyes.
Unknown what kind of changes he encountered, even affecting his true self, making his breath unstable. A mouthful of fresh blood spat out, his face immediately dimmed down. All Saints watching, as if the power of the [Stealing Mechanism] Dao under his control had been partially cut and damaged!
Such changes immediately caused shock among All Saints in the Xuanji Ring.
Li Fan squinted, thoughtfully infused him with True Spirit. Also took the opportunity to observe closely whether it was a feigned injury by Stealing Mechanism.
Found the injuries of Stealing Mechanism were indeed very severe, not like fake.
More speechless in his heart.
All Saints did not rush, waited until Stealing Mechanism slightly recovered, then asked about the situation ahead.
"How strange! I clearly was going against the current entering the Mountain Sea ahead, even with Dao Yan spanning across, at most the disparity is no more than ten thousand years. But..."
"What I saw, however, was a scene of Barren Wilderness! Mountain Sea not apparent, Tao Chaos... Evildoers everywhere. It was actually like the rumored Taichu Immortal Realm!" Stealing Mechanism took a deep breath, spoke solemnly.
"Taichu Immortal Realm?" All Saints were stunned, to confirm Stealing Mechanism’s previous direction, once again looked up.
The Mountain Sea ahead, though heavily besieged by the Void Realm, largely had no significant difference from the current Mountain Sea.
"Seems, my observation is correct." Saint Lianshan spoke at this time.
"Dear Saint Lianshan, what exactly did you see?" All Saints hurriedly asked.
"Not that I saw anything. But Stealing Mechanism Daoist disappearing from my sight the moment he entered the Mountain Sea ahead." Lianshan truthfully replied.
Sea Return Saint’s expression gradually became serious as well: "Mysterious and vast, covering the sky and shrouding the sun. Spanning ancient times, connecting Mountain Sea. Is this our old friend making a presence? Isn’t he..."
"How could he appear here?"
"The Tao of Mountain and Sea Living Beings involves the essence of Mountain Sea. Even we must treat it cautiously. If detected by those guys at the beginning of Mountain Sea, tracing the source, intending to devour it akin to us is within expectations." Tai Yi Saint’s eyes flashed with a trace of killing intent.
In front of him, a rod of countless beings seemed to sense something, floating unprovoked. It also appeared eager to try.
At this moment, Stealing Mechanism finally couldn’t help but inquire: "Dare to ask the Three Saints, who is the one arranging ahead, just who is that divine being? That Taichu Immortal Realm I experienced..."
"Its name is [Suo]. Fond of using the power of longitude and latitude, devouring mountains and seas. The scene you experienced before should be the mountain sea imagery swallowed by it in the past. Now released, casting a shadow over the current Mountain Sea." Saint Lianshan explained to everyone.
On hearing it, All Saints couldn’t hide their shock.
No one expected that midst the inspection of All Saints, an invisible net had already wrapped the Mountain Sea ahead.
The current situation is, shockingly, [Suo] has already considered it as part of his possession!
"Suo has always been timid and prudent, always hiding at the beginning of Mountain Sea, unwilling to leave any trace in later generations. Suddenly appearing now..."
