My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 681: Chapter 647: Changes are about to happen in Heaven and Earth

With the [Great Five Elements Cave Heaven] as a foundation, even if the [Essence of Heaven] that Hongxi extracted during his God Transformation was unremarkable, his achievements would still surpass the present.

Did he not desire this?

It was just that he simply could not achieve it.

For Natural Treasures and Heaven-Earth Principle, one could still strive for them with personal efforts.

But when it came to the Nascent Soul or God Transformation stage, wishing to obtain a powerful and rare Cave Heaven World or Essence of Heaven, mere personal diligence would not suffice. Without the backing of family resources and lacking personal opportunities, how would one compete with other cultivators?

For ordinary cultivators, finding resources and being able to successfully promote themselves are already considered fortunate. They no longer have the luxury to pick and choose.

Such as the first economy, giving up the opportunity to attain Unity-Path in the face of the temptation of the Essence of Heaven and Earth. It was because of his exceptional talent that he had disdain for the weak essence of heaven and earth. But also, didn’t he occupy a high position in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, with resources and information that ordinary cultivators simply cannot match?

The strong can meticulously select and repeatedly consider their future path, leading to the powerful becoming even more powerful.

And the weak can only seize the hard-earned opportunity for promotion and push through almost reluctantly, thus causing the weak to remain weak always.

Therefore, from the Nascent Soul Realm onward, the gap in strength between individual cultivators becomes more and more pronounced.

Even if they fight in the same realm, the possibility of instantly killing the opponent is not non-existent.

Now that Li Fan has broken through with the Great Five Elements Cave Heaven, he has already reached the ceiling of the Nascent Soul Transformation Realm.

But as for how to find the matching [Essence of Heaven], he was still clueless.

What is the essence of heaven?

Long Jiuyuan, achieved God Transformation using the [Sky Spirit Will Produce Thousand Waters].

Hongxi, achieved breakthrough with [Taihua Will Produce Thousand Mountains].

From the information revealed in the death notices of these two, perhaps we can glimpse some clues.

The marrow of a human produces blood, whereas the essence of heaven forms the law.

When the heavenly law appears in the Xuanhuang World, the tangible manifestation is “Heaven and Earth Changes”.

The Sky Spirit Province, thousands of years from now, will have thousands of rivers born.

The Taihua province will, after a few thousand years, have a thousand mountains erected.

These are the prearranged changes that will happen in a certain domain of the XuanHuang world over time.

Extracting the essence of heaven and earth is to extract and separate the laws that drive these “Changes in Heaven and Earth”.

Using the vast power of Heaven and Earth to elevate oneself.

So as to achieve a substantial increase in cultivation and combat power.

At the same time, the preliminary integration of the Heaven-Earth Principle into one’s own body lays the groundwork for the future moment when a cultivator attains Unity-Path with the “sacrifice of the Pith of Heaven and Earth”.

“Changes in Heaven and Earth usually occur over thousands to tens of thousands of years. With the sensory abilities of a cultivator, they can’t be easily perceived. However, the Tianzun New Method can sense even the most infinitesimal changes. First, it tears open a crack, and then continuously extracts and absorbs the [Source of Power] that Heaven and Earth would slowly release over thousands of years.”

“While this act is akin to significantly depleting the potential of the world, it enables a significant leap in power for cultivators.”

Li Fan racked his brains, integrating what he knew from the past, searching for an answer.

“The Five Elements Cave Heaven, self-circulating and blended as one, is something you come across by chance rather than seek out. If I were going to achieve God Transformation and extract the Essence of Heaven, my best option would be related to it.”

“But when the Five Elements manifest in the world, they will dissipate. I fear that a single Essence of Heaven would only correspond to a specific attribute.”

“And for a God Transformation stage cultivator wanting to achieve multiple laws similar to the Gold Core, it’s not that simple.”

Li Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Besides forming the law, the Essence of Heaven also has mechanisms similar to “immunity” and “resistance”.

Once one has already absorbed a certain type of Heavenly Marrow, attempting to extract others would be detected and face certain resistance.

“The more you master, the greater the resistance. With each additional type, the difficulty increases almost exponentially. Therefore, for the vast majority of cultivators in this world, extracting one type of Heavenly Marrow is already the limit.”

“Even for someone like Long Jiuyuan, capable of contending the Essence of Heaven and Earth single-handedly and attaining Unity-Path, it is so. This is enough to illustrate its difficulty.”

“I can probably only accommodate two types of Heavenly Marrow at most….” Li Fan thought, without any undue faith in himself.

“To achieve a perfect promotion, unless….”

A gleam flashed through Li Fan’s eyes: “Extract five different types of Heavenly Marrow at the same time and use the principle of Mutual Generation and Mutual Overcoming to achieve self-balance.”

This is undoubtedly a whimsical idea.

Not to mention where one would encounter the opportunity to simultaneously extract five types of Heavenly Marrow, even if one did, the chances of success would be slim to none.

Any rational cultivator would not choose to do it this way.

However, for Li Fan, it might be worth a try!

Inside his Spirit Consciousness, the Transformation Crystal Body was emitting a ceaseless, faint blue light, continually integrating the information from his past experiences, and slowly deducing a possible method to realize his idea.

…

Ten days later, Li Fan sensed Liu Sansu waking up. He flickered and appeared in front of him.

Apparently having spent a considerable amount of time in the Fallen Immortal Realm, Liu San, who had just returned to the Real World, seemed a bit unaccustomed.

A touch of confusion flashed in his eyes.

However, this confusion quickly faded the moment he saw Li Fan.

“Young Master!” Liu San rose to his feet and said with a normal expression.

“Well, did you encounter the cultivator of the Medicine King Sect from back then?” asked Li Fan in a kindly manner.

Liu San shook his head.

“It’s strange. The scenario I experienced in the Fallen Immortal Realm this time was not the Ancient Xian Realm you mentioned, but a space-time I’ve never heard of before.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn

“There, the Immortal Law was completely cut off, and there were no cultivators in the world. People could only resonate with various magic tools from ancient times to gain extraordinary powers. They were called something like ‘God Weapon Users’…..”

“And the person I was attached to this time was just a boy of seven or eight years old.”

As Liu San recalled, he shared his experiences with Li Fan.

“In the end, after countless hardships and bloody battles, I finally succeeded in resonating with the most powerful god weapon in legend.”

“The Sword of Immortal….”

As he spoke, Liu San took out a long sword that gleamed with seven-colored radiance and seemed to contain endless evil spirits.

Li Fan’s eyes narrowed, and after a closer look, he chuckled.

Liu San then said, “The name is impressive, but it’s just a Life Sword that a Nascent Soul stage sword cultivator crafted.”

“It’s only because it was in contact with a strand of the fallen cultivator’s residual soul that it stood out among a bunch of ‘so-called’ god weapons.”

Liu San glanced at the flying sword in front of him and made a somewhat disdainful comment: “The craftsmanship is crude, and the materials are very common. It’s just junk.”

After saying that, he exerted a little force.

The so-called most potent god weapon, the “Sword of Immortal,” was turned to ashes in an instant.
