My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 2340 - 1747: God Once Changed Mountain Sea (Part 2)
This was his first true contact.
Li Fan did not dwell any further.
"Having this Divine Technique at my side is definitely a blessing for me now. True and False Changes, True God Finger. With the enhancement of both..."
"Mountain Lian’s initial All Saints are not to be feared." Li Fan’s heart surged with a wave of boldness.
But recalling the last lifetime, the descent of the New God seemed to change to another person. He instantly calmed down.
"The two New Gods I encountered before and after, their styles are vastly different. I can basically conclude that the Godhood achievers of both lifetimes are not the same person. This means that Mountain Lian’s initial All Saints actually all have the power to replace Mountain Lian and achieve New Godhood. What they lack is just a bit of luck."
"Truly not easy to provoke. No wonder the Three Saints are always so cautious when discussing Mountain Lian’s initial Saints."
"I must not act recklessly, I should proceed according to the original plan." Li Fan’s excitement subsided suddenly.
"I have True and False Changes within me, so I don’t need to compete with them. The so-called acquiring Divine Split Creation is simply a dead end."
Li Fan compared the various situations after the descent of different New Gods over these lifetimes. He became more certain of his judgment.
"Mountain and Sea, New God. None can escape the pursuit of the Star, this has long been destined."
"Mountain and Sea Without Boundary, melding with each other. This is the beginning of Dao Yan."
"From the day of merging, the fate of Mountain Lian’s ultimate annihilation was destined..."
"But viewed from a later perspective, at the initial moment of Mountain and Sea Without Boundary, Mountain Lian itself did not seem to perceive its own tragic future. Instead, it remained optimistic."
"This aspect is indeed rather suspicious. Not to mention me as a latecomer, even the initial All Saints of Mountain Lian could foresee the dreadful catastrophe in the future, choosing to sever the future method to escape the Tribulation. How could Mountain Lian not be aware? This makes no sense!"
Suddenly thinking of the matter of modifying the Hungry Immortal’s consciousness just now, a thought suddenly surged in Li Fan’s mind.
"Boundaryless Stele, True God Finger, not only cause Mountain and Sea to meld but also distort and rewrite Mountain Lian’s concept?"
Li Fan’s heart trembled slightly.
"Perhaps the melding of Mountain and Sea is only superficial. Altering Mountain Lian’s consciousness and changing its future direction is the true purpose of the True God Finger."
In an instant, Li Fan couldn’t help thinking of the three rumors about the god’s posthumous moves.
"It is said that Mountain Lian’s Divine Split and the god at the brink of death left three follow-up moves."
"Each has the power to overturn Mountain Lian."
"Earlier, I suspected that the Star and Hai Zhen were among them."
"However, now I understand that Hai Zhen was once me, with supreme talent, acquired through blending All Saints Path, not a so-called divine gift."
"Looking at it now, this Mountain and Sea Boundaryless Stele seems more like one of the god’s posthumous moves."
"The key is, where did it ultimately go?"
Li Fan’s heart stirred, choosing to inherit the Dao Yi Mountain and Sea Map crafted in his previous life.
A splash-ink scroll appeared in Li Fan’s hand immediately.
Compared to its initial creation, it has changed significantly.
Having weathered countless ripples from battles in the New God Void Realm, the Mountain and Sea Map now possesses a few more unique and mysterious rhythms.
However...
"The Mountain and Sea Boundaryless Stele, however, is gone."
"Only its shadow remains."
"A faint wisp..."
"Even with True and False Changes of Hai Zhen, it cannot completely replicate it?"
This was the first time Li Fan encountered something that Hai Zhen couldn’t mold.
After all, even Mountain Lian and All Saints could be recreated at a thought.
If there truly is something that cannot be reproduced...
"Without a doubt, it belongs to the True God above Mountain Lian’s Transcendence."
Li Fan carefully examined the remnants of the Mountain and Sea Boundaryless Stele.
Even just a faint wisp of an afterimage surpassed Li Fan’s tracing and engraving by a thousandfold.
After a long observation, insights welled up in his heart like a mountain spring, continuously gushing forth.
Li Fan vaguely understood where the Mountain and Sea Boundaryless Stele collapsed afterwards.
"It’s not that it went somewhere, but it simply doesn’t exist anymore."
"The Mountain and Sea Boundaryless Stele came about solely to merge Mountain Lian and the Sea. If Mountain Lian no longer exists, and the Mountain and Sea Map as its lower substitute also disappears, then the Boundaryless Stele naturally will not reappear in the world."
"But if, within the void, Mountain and Sea reemerge..."
"Then the Mountain and Sea Boundaryless Stele will inevitably descend again like a shadow attached to bones!"
"It turns out, the Boundaryless Stele seen in each Mountain and Sea Reincarnation is not reset by Hai Zhen. It is the Stele itself that manifests again."
"As for the many engravings on it..."
Li Fan recalls the scene from the last lifetime, where under Dao Yan’s impact, the Boundaryless Stele had the afterimages of the All Saints rising from it.
"They are just the engravings of the Taoist Principle, not of the Boundaryless Stele itself."
"When it manifests again, it naturally won’t carry those."
"The relics left by the True God indeed matter greatly."
Li Fan looked up, gazing as if penetrating through Mountain Lian’s countless possibilities, directly to where the Boundaryless Stele resides.
"With just this one finger, it sealed off all future possibilities of Mountain Lian."
"No matter how it struggles, no matter what variables evolve, as long as Mountain Lian itself exists, the Boundaryless Stele will descend to fix its fate."
"Plus, finally engulfing all Lone Stars."
"The ending of Mountain and Sea was essentially composed the moment it swallowed the god."
"No wonder, it is unconcerned with the end."
Turning his thoughts to whether such a method of controlling Mountain Lian requires three follow-up moves, Li Fan pondered deeply.
"Perhaps there are other uses."
"Either they restrain each other to prevent failure. Or..."
"To serve for a recoming back."
The more he observed the God’s Finger, the more Li Fan felt the immeasurable nature of the former True God.
Then the persistent question surfaced again in his mind.
"How did the god actually die?"
"It has always been the Mountain Lian’s Divine Split, not the Mountain Lian slaying the god. Clearly, with Mountain Lian’s means, it is by no means a match for that True God. What caused the destruction of the spiritual source of all power?"
The answer to this question may only be faintly glimpsed at the beginning of Mountain Lian and at the Divine Split.
Li Fan did not trouble himself with this, but instead, focused on his subsequent plans.
"With this Boundaryless Stele suppressing the array, my Dao Yi Diagram can absolutely be deemed a Mountain and Sea Treasure."
"In ordinay circumstances, it facilitates the harmonious melding of Dao Yan and Mountain Lian. If I further wield the True God Finger..."
"With a thought, I can effortlessly trap and suppress All Saints."
Having successfully crafted such a treasure, Li Fan did not forget his original purpose. It was precisely to...
Body Transformation Void Realm Master!
The Dao Yi Mountain and Sea transformed into a black and white robe, draped around his body. Li Fan sat performing enlightenment.
Within Mountain Lian, all sorts of Taoist Principles appeared almost within grasp, for him to freely pick from.
In fact, what Li Fan touched was not the true Daos within Mountain and Sea, but only tracings within the Mountain and Sea Map. Yet, resembling truth, Li Fan could directly use them to achieve enlightenment and become a Saint!
"This greatly reduces the difficulty of enlightenment but cannot serve as the foundation for enhancing power. To truly become a Mountain and Sea Saint, one must use the Daos within Mountain Lian as the basis. However, such use of the Mountain and Sea Map is already enough to startle the world!"
"True Spirit Infusion solves the qualification for becoming a Saint. The Dao Yi Mountain and Sea Map can ignore the requirements for enlightening into a Saint. Combining the two, as long as I wish, I can cultivate a sufficient reserve of Saints!"
"Saints? Replaceable at any time!"
As his thoughts flowed, Li Fan’s aura simultaneously surged increasingly.
From Mortal, recultivating to the Saint Realm, Li Fan took only a little over five decades this time!
It should be known, this was achieved without the Starlight’s aid, relying solely on Li Fan himself!
—It will be corrected soon, I apologize.
Then the persistent question reemerged in his mind.
"How did the god actually die?"
"It has always been the Mountain Lian’s Divine Split, not the Mountain Lian slaying the god. Clearly, with Mountain Lian’s means, it is by no means a match for that True God. What caused the destruction of the spiritual source of all power?"
The answer to this question may only be faintly glimpsed at the beginning of Mountain Lian and at the Divine Split.
