My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 823: Chapter 786: Distorting Heaven and Earth Reason

“`

He did not rest for long.

The newly ascended God Transformation Realm Xu Bai, once again made a move.

And this time, it caused Li Fan, who was still immersed in shock, to experience a sudden acceleration of heartbeat and an overwhelming sense of suffocation.

As everyone knows.

In the Xuanhuang World, after the Celestial Dharma Bearer established the New Method, to achieve the Realm of Unification, one must [sacrifice the Essence of Heaven and Earth].

Before this, Li Fan had imagined the path that the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai would take to step into Unity.

Crimson Flame, Green Wind, Black Swarm…

Or the immensely powerful [Mo Sha], who performs the annihilation duty of heaven.

But at this moment, when Li Fan truly sensed the events occurring to the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai,

His understanding was once again completely overturned!

The Sacred Embryo Xu Bai stood silently in the air, motionless like a stone sculpture.

But it seemed as if something descended from the heavens.

Falling upon the body of the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai!

Boom!

Various images flashed through Li Fan’s Spirit Consciousness in an instant.

Fertile territory, brimming with life. A blurry figure descends, and then ice seals thousands of miles. Everything in sight falls into absolute death silence.

Spirit of Heaven and Earth: Clear Ice!

Within the originally dark hair of the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai, a strand of frost-white suddenly emerged.

Although it quickly returned to normal, this phenomenon brought Li Fan an immense shock.

Because, according to the perceptions transmitted from the body of the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai, in that instant, he had astonishingly already mastered the power of Heaven and Earth’s Essence [Clear Ice]!

The Essence of Heaven and Earth, born to perform Heavenly Duty, each with its own mighty power.

Once a cultivator kills and refines it, taking it over, they can—in the blink of an eye—steal and control the original power of Heaven and Earth.

This is also why the strength of New Method Integration Cultivators generally far surpasses that of the old Method.

But now, something that seemed to break the iron law of the New Method happened to the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai.

He didn’t kill the Essence of Heaven and Earth, but its power was transferred to him just like that!

Furthermore, this was just the first one!

Quietly, a second wave of fluctuations came as if traveling ten thousand li to arrive.

Descending upon the body of the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai.

Once again, illusions emerged in front of Li Fan.

A land of desolation thousands of li wide, infested by strange insects, not a single blade of grass in sight. Suddenly, fine rain began to fall upon the world.

The original barren land, nourished by the rain, slowly became fertile, while those strange insects, as if encountering a fearsome natural enemy.

Amidst the desperate chirping, their bodies gradually dissolved. Washed away by the rainwater, they became fertilizer for the earth.

Spirit of Heaven and Earth: Dai Yu!

The hair of the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai seemed to have grown a bit longer.

Li Fan’s heart suddenly stopped beating.

Because, in that instant, the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai had also mastered the power of Dai Yu.

In just a short moment, two Essences of Heaven and Earth had been added to him.

Yet, the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai was not satisfied, he closed his eyes.

Toward the heavens, he stretched out his hands, opening his embrace.

From east to west, from south to north.

The Essences of Heaven and Earth, came one after another.

“Damn!”

Li Fan cursed inwardly, immediately stopping his dazed spectating and hastened the actions on his hands.

“Looking at his speed of Unification, I’m afraid there won’t be enough time to set up Chaos Puppets in each state.”

“I can only choose states with a high concentration of cultivators.”

“After that, return to the Valley of Eternal Life as quickly as possible.”

As Li Fan flew towards the nearest Heaven City, he recalled and observed everything happening to the Sacred Embryo Xu Bai above, his thoughts whirling rapidly.

“Having gained its power without killing the Essence of Heaven and Earth.”

“`

“This is ‘[Misform]’…”

“Even for a Heavenly Dao Incarnation, this seems like a bit too much!”

“Ordinary cultivators are able to inherit the power of the Essence of Heaven and Earth by killing because of the blessings of the Tianzun New Method.”

“But what Sacred Embryo Xu Bai is doing…”

“It’s not about offering sacrifices to the Essence of Heaven and Earth, it’s about transforming into the Essence of Heaven and Earth!”

In an instant, Li Fan understood Sacred Embryo Xu Bai’s plan.

Even with the talent of a Heavenly Dao Incarnation, contravening the Principle of Heaven and Earth wasn’t going to be an overnight feat.

Moreover, from the conversation he had eavesdropped on between Sun Liancheng and Sun Qi, he knew that the deeper the favor from the heavens, the harder it was to reverse the Principle of Heaven and Earth, and the stronger the backlash.

It was very likely that Sacred Embryo Xu Bai would never be able to reach the Immortal Realm.

But upon his resurrection, his opponents would certainly be those Immortal Sovereigns.

Bridging the gap between Integration and Longevity was like comparing the heavens to an abyss.

How could he match their strength?

The only way was to push the power of Integration to its limit.

One Essence of Heaven and Earth was equivalent to the strength of a Realm Cultivator in the Realm of Unification.

If one Integration-level wasn’t enough to contend with the power of an Immortal Sovereign, then ten, or a hundred!

Diverse powers from different Essences of Heaven and Earth merged into the body of Sacred Embryo Xu Bai.

With each integration, his aura jumped up a notch.

And the scenes Li Fan sensed slowly became blurry.

From the initial vividity to being obscured by a thin film, and then to looking through a mist.

Li Fan was losing his absolute control over Sacred Embryo Xu Bai.

Which also meant…

Mr. Bai was awakening!

Li Fan seized this last opportunity to extract as much information as possible from Sacred Embryo Xu Bai.

“So that’s how it is…”

“His mastering of the Essence of Heaven and Earth’s power doesn’t mean that these Essences no longer exist in the Xuanhuang World.”

“Instead, through ‘[Misform],’ he temporarily transferred the power that belonged to the Essence of Heaven and Earth onto himself.”

“An amalgamation of countless different types of energy, yet without the slightest rejection.”

“Aside from a Heavenly Dao Incarnation, no one else could withstand this. No matter how high their talents…”

“No, this isn’t even a matter of talent.”

Li Fan also keenly noticed something else.

As the number of Essences of Heaven and Earth that had undergone [Misform] grew, Sacred Embryo Xu Bai’s body shape was also subtly changing.

His height, his silhouette, became more like the phantom of the Essence of Heaven and Earth!

The pressure became greater and greater, and Li Fan fully felt the life-and-death, disaster-imminent pressure.

Fortunately, when Sacred Embryo Xu Bai had almost completely [Misformed] the dislocated powers of the Essences of Heaven and Earth in the world,

His actions towards Unity slowed down.

Because now, it was time for those Essences of Heaven and Earth that didn’t exist in the world in ordinary times and only descended at critical moments to take the stage.

The sky over Sky-spirit State suddenly darkened.

An almost imperceptible shadow attached itself to Sacred Embryo Xu Bai’s body.

Boom!

It was as if his brain was violently struck. Li Fan, who was hastily hurrying toward the Valley of Eternal Life, preparing for everything, nearly stumbled and fell from the sky.

Spirit of Heaven and Earth: Phantom!

Feeling the incoming information, beads of sweat slid down Li Fan’s forehead.

Not out of fear.

But because sharing a body with Sacred Embryo Xu Bai was already putting tremendous pressure on him.

In plain terms, it was like saying, “What level are you at to share the same body with me?”

As the image flickered in and out of view, Li Fan sensed that another extremely powerful Essence of Heaven and Earth was descending upon the lands of Sky-spirit State.
