My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 116 – Startled Swan Meets Green Wind

Chapter 116: Chapter 111: Startled Swan Meets Green Wind

[Real], what exactly is it?

Ever since Li Fan awakened [Real], this question had been deeply buried in his heart.

Is it a unique ability that awoke within him when he crossed realms?

Or, is it a mysterious treasure hidden within his own body?

At certain moments, Li Fan couldn’t help but feel a subconscious fear.

What if one day, he suddenly lost [Real]? What then?

Or, at a moment when he needed to transform the solid into the void, [Real] suddenly malfunctioned, what then?

When he first read the “Theory of Miraculous Objects”, Li Fan also doubted whether [Real] was a kind of Natural Treasure.

Could he use it to establish his Tao Foundation?

Now, after hearing Yin Shangren’s remarks, Li Fan had a subtle certainty that perhaps he really could establish a Tao Foundation with [Real].

But…

Not now.

As his last trump card, he would not dare to try it recklessly without sufficient certainty.

If using [Real] to establish the foundation was considered a subject to be conquered, then Li Fan currently didn’t even have the qualifications to join the discussion.

After all, he still hadn’t figured out what the process of establishing the foundation was all about.

Luckily in this era, most problems can be solved with payment.

Lin Fan’s avatar started to search for knowledge related to the foundation’s establishment.

“Introduction to Foundation Building”, “Heaven, Earth, Man”, “Hundred People’s Foundation Building Record”…

He exchanged and read book after book of relevant works.

Gradually, Li Fan began to gain a rough understanding of the foundation’s establishment.

Using [Art of Devouring Essence] to ingest the treasures of heaven and earth into his Dantian.

The Root of Heaven and Earth takes root there.

Using the treasures as soil and bed, absorbing the laws contained within them, and finally bearing the fruit known as the “Tao Foundation”.

The treasures of heaven and earth are divided into Heaven’s Oddities, Earth’s Oddities, and Miraculous Human Items.

Among them, it is easiest to establish the foundation with Miraculous Human Items.

Because Miraculous Human Items are mostly the remnants of fallen cultivators, containing the cultivator’s understanding of the laws during their lifetime.

In the process of establishing the foundation, it’s as if there was a teacher constantly guiding and instructing.

However, Earth’s Wonders and Heaven’s Oddities are closer to the pure Law of Taoist.

Without the insights of other cultivators as reference, one needs to spend more time and energy to comprehend the various rules aggregated in the treasure, and transform it into one’s own Tao Foundation.

But the advantage of using Heaven and Earth Oddities to build a Tao Foundation lies in its infallibility.

Just like when breaking through the final stage of Energy Refining, condensing the Root of Heaven and Earth and forcibly extracting Spiritual Energy. Such a method of establishing a foundation highlights a sense of “stability”.

“If one were to say that prior to the Great Calamity, establishing the foundation was a closed-book exam, then establishing the foundation today is an

open-D00K exam. ‘Ine answer IS ngnt In tront or you. ‘l’ne speea ana accuracy of copying depends on the individual.” Li Fan pondered silently.

“The rarer the treasure, the higher the difficulty of the exam. When the difficulty is so high that even the examination questions seem incomprehensible, let alone answering.”

“In this case, even if I wanted to use [Real] for establishing the foundation in a short time, I wouldn’t be able to.”

“But, by improving my understanding of the laws of the Tao in the process of constantly establishing the foundation, and then repeatedly trying, there might still be a chance.”

“As for that [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation]…”

“Ten years from now. Maybe, I should let that Yin Shangren try it first.” Li Fan planned his future cultivation.

Currently, since his avatar existed, the remains of the cultivator he got in the Tianyang Cave Mansion couldn’t be used yet.

The avatar, Lin Fan, continued to explore the secrets in the Tianxuan Mirror while also exchanging and reading some Foundation Establishment Techniques to accumulate knowledge for the integration of his several techniques.

As for his real body, Li Fan still intends to wait for the emergence of the Ocean Pearl to establish his foundation.

In his previous life, he transformed into a vast ocean, and gained enlightenment of heaven and earth through the consciousness of the ocean.

He was already in perfect harmony with this Ocean Pearl.

Using it to establish the foundation would definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

Now more than half of the 13 years he had set as an anchor has passed. It should only be about 7 or 8 years left till the Crimson Blaze Ocean and the emergence of the Ocean Pearl.

He can wait.

Besides, during this period, it’s not like he doesn’t have a way to understand the way of foundation establishment.

Formless Killing Machine, the art of Heaven and Earth’s Perception, activated.

The picture in his consciousness gradually became clear.

In the violent storm, Zhang Haobo was fluttering in the wind like a kite with a broken string.

Huge waves, raindrops the size of soybeans, he didn’t care at all, letting them hit him.

Li Fan was observing Zhang Haobo.

“It’s been almost three months since I saw him last time. Now he’s at the final stage of Energy Refining…

“His eyes are tightly shut, his breath is nonexistent, even the spiritual energy in his body has quietened down.”

“What is he comprehending?”

Li Fan was also observing the raging storm.

Not sure if it was an illusion, in the gloomy sky, a flash of green light quickly disappeared.

“That is…”

When Li Fan looked again, he couldn’t see it anymore.

That fleeting glimpse just now, seems like it was just his illusion.

“Green…”

Under the art of Heaven and Earth’s Perception, Li Fan didn’t believe he could see it wrong.

He suddenly remembered the storm disasters that had been ravaging Misthaven Ocean for several years.

He had previously inquired about the storm disaster in the Tianxuan Mirror, but it didn’t seem to have much impact on cultivators, and there were no records at all.

Now he knew, this should also have been influenced by the Immortal Sovereign.

Li Fan remembered that a huge storm disaster had occurred shortly before he came to Misthaven Ocean in his previous life.

A hundred islands were destroyed.

In the following years, the scale and frequency of the storm disaster decreased, until the Crimson Flame came.

“There might be some secrets in this. But it’s not time to investigate…” Li Fan kept this in mind.

His attention was then focused back on Zhang Haobo.

He was still in a state of comprehension.

Li Fan couldn’t figure out why. It seemed as if the stormy sky and the pouring rain had no end and he didn’t know when they would stop.

So, he could only leave a small part of his spiritual consciousness paying attention to Zhang Haobo’s movements.

Most of his attention, however, was back on the Tianxuan Mirror.

“Betting on a single person is obviously not feasible, casting a wide net is the way to go. I haven’t tried yet, how many people can the Formless Killing Machine lock onto at most.”

“Hmm, I can find some cultivators who are about to establish their foundation, and do some experiments.”

When it came to gathering information, Li Fan thought of Jiao Xiuyuan.

Although this person was greedy and fearful of death, his information was quite reliable.

He was also his regular customer.

So, he concealed his figure, took a familiar road, and arrived outside the Thousand Miles Hall.

Before he even walked in, he heard Jiao Xiuyuan yelling from afar.

“I’ve got everything ready, when are you going to come and get it? How many times have I reminded you?”

“Don’t give me any excuses about not being able to come at all, I think you just don’t want it anymore!”

“Hello? Hello?”

“Damn it!”

As Li Fan walked into the room, he saw an angry and disappointed Jiao Xiuyuan.

He slammed a small tripod onto the table..
