My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 1516: Chapter 1319: Blood Meets True Immortal Yi

The scene of Elder Li Fan’s contact with the ancient characters was different from that of the Elders of the Immortal Boat.

Ou Shangtian’s already youthful body did not exhibit any backtracking phenomenon. Inside his body, the hidden [Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand] emitted subtle, barely perceptible tremors, absorbing and assimilating the power of the ancient characters.

Li Fan did not know whether “absorbing and assimilating” was an appropriate way to describe this process. In his perception, the ancient characters and the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand seemed to resonate with each other.

Consequently, the power of the True Immortal Seal Character, which was supposed to act upon Ou Shangtian’s body, was all drawn into the wondrous object that was the [Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand].

Another wondrous object inside Ou Shangtian’s body, the [Book of Thousand Deaths], showed no activity whatsoever.

Stirred by the power of [Ancient], the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand underwent subtle transformations.

Upon the previously bare and stark white bones, there emerged patches of dark red flesh, merely thin lines, almost imperceptible. Yet, Li Fan, who had been watching the entire process from the beginning, detected the anomaly immediately.

The birth of flesh made the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand appear even more mystical, as though filled with spirituality, coming to life in an instant. Without Ou Shangtian’s control, the skeletal fingers trembled on their own.

“Eh hmm…” The slumbering Ou Shangtian groaned. The unrest within the wondrous objects in his body clearly caused him significant distress.

Li Fan placed his hands on Ou Shangtian’s head, calming him back into a deep sleep.

A Golden Light emerged from Li Fan’s hands, turning into a sharp surgical knife, and he slid it down Ou Shangtian’s arm.

The flesh did not tear; the Gold surgery knife entered Ou Shangtian’s body directly, arriving beside the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand.

As if sensing the approach of an external enemy, the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand trembled intensely and steadily. It even seemed to recklessly desire to break free from its host in an attempt to escape.

But how could Li Fan possibly allow it to have its way?

Threads detached from the gold small knife, turning into chains that firmly locked the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand in place.

The shadow of the small knife flickered and changed rapidly, scraping off every inch of the newly grown flesh on the bone hand.

Piercing and resentful screams seemed to echo in his ears, but Li Fan remained composed, using the Essence of Origin Force to weave a golden net, packing all the flesh and sealing it.

Without the influence of the newborn flesh, the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand became calm and tranquil once more.

However, Ou Shangtian now appeared to have suffered severe internal injuries, with a scarely pale complexion.

With a casual brandish of Spiritual Power, Li Fan nourished Ou Shangtian’s body. He then took the lifeless flesh curled within the Essence of Origin Force Net and teleported below the Lecture Platform.

Above the platform, the projection kept lecturing non-stop.

Whereas in the vast hole excavated below, Li Fan had begun researching the flesh.

“The appearance of the Kun-Qian Skeletal Hand is identical to the Vanguard Realm of Bones. According to Hegemon Zi Miao, the master of the Pioneer Realm, the Vanguard Realm of Bones was modeled after a painting album he once saw that depicted the remnant of a True Immortal…”

“Does that mean, these pieces of flesh could likely be True Immortal Flesh?”

Li Fan narrowed his eyes, looking at the piece of dark red tissue within the golden net.

Having escaped from True Immortals numerous times and having witnessed Kitty Treasure devour a True Immortal right before his eyes, Li Fan no longer held any awe for True Immortals in his heart.

In this life, thanks to a fortunate coincidence, the progress of [Huanzhen] Void Energy Infusion accelerated, doubling his ability to activate Huanzhen three consecutive times.

With safety assured, Li Fan began his attempt to research True Immortal Flesh.

Firstly, it was certain that this clump of True Immortal Flesh did not possess “consciousness” of its own. Its capability to move seemed more akin to a biological instinctive response.

“But the current quantity of the flesh is still very little. If it were any more, it might not be the same story,” Li Fan remained cautious on this point.

This clump of flesh was definitely sufficient for research. When it was used up, he could simply extract more from Ou Shangtian.

Firstly, Li Fan analyzed the composition of the True Immortal Flesh.

Using Essence of Source Power Knife, he cut off a small piece. Then the golden light rotated continuously, turning into a meat grinder, shredding the small piece of flesh.

“No trace of Celestial Spiritual Power.” It was as Li Fan expected, so he felt no disappointment.

He separated the tissue from the blood. The activity of the tissues was noticeably inferior to that of True Immortal Blood. In this blood, there seems to be a hidden sort of special energy…

Li Fan’s eyes lit up, dividing a wisp of Divine Sense, trying to probe into the separated blood.

However, the moment his Divine Sense touched the True Immortal Blood, it was as if it had struck an intensely hot iron door, violently reverberating and dizzied, and half of it evaporated directly by the searing heat contained within the blood.

“Hm?”

It was only a wisp of divided Divine Sense, yet the vibrations and burning sensation it experienced were reflected in Li Fan’s own Divine Sense.

His head felt as if it had been struck by a sudden blow, followed by a raging inferno erupting within his Divine Soul.

The anguish, akin to soul dispersal, would have obliterated any ordinary Cultivator struck unawares.

But Li Fan was no ordinary person.

Empowered by the Infinite Fulfillment and Emptiness Method, his Divine Soul circulated and regenerated, almost indestructible.

Even amidst torment akin to Purgatory, Li Fan eventually persevered.

With Li Fan’s current endurance, after this round of backlash from the True Immortal Blood, his forehead was still covered in cold sweat, and his muscles spasmed uncontrollably.

The intense heat in his Divine Soul gradually faded, and after everything calmed down, Li Fan took a deep breath, dispelling all discomfort.
