My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 270 – The True Fear

Chapter 270: Chapter 250: The True Fear

He XinXin obviously knew her stuff.

She said “thank you, uncle” softly, smiling as she accepted the flag of array.

Watching the two of them, the incredibly worried He Zhenghao couldn’t help but interject, “Haha, while your gift is valuable, I’m afraid it won’t be of much use to my daughter.”

“In terms of predicting crises and preserving life, my daughter is much more capable than this old father of hers.”

At these words, Li Fan’s gaze flickered.

“Oh? What do you mean by this?”

A tinge of pride surfaced on He Zhenghao’s face, “I don’t mean to brag, but my daughter has an astonishing talent in divination since she was young.”

“She’s been learning related techniques from Ruoshui… from her mother, over these years.”

“And has made quite a progress.”

“She not only able to shield against the divine calculation that prevents others from scheming against her.”

“She can even vaguely predict future events, thus transforming bad fortune into good.”

Li Fan took another look at He XinXin, who appeared delicate and cultured, contemplatively.

“Shield against the divine calculation? Could it be that the surveillance function of the Formless Killing Machine failed because of her?”

“It seems that He Zhenghao wasn’t boasting. Such a method is genuinely impressive. ”

“I wonder what kind of cultivation techniques she’s cultivated.”

However, the Cultivators in this world regard cultivation techniques as a highly private matter, so Li Fan wouldn’t ask rashly.

He simply matched He Zhenghao’s words with a face full of surprise and incredulity, “I’ve only heard that the divine intention is highly elusive, but never thought that XinXin could predict it? Is it really so mystifying?” “It is the truth, the accuracy rate is quite high…’

He Zhenghao paused, then added, “However, there are times when the predictions are wrong.”

He glanced back at He XinXin and said with a smile, ‘My daughter once had a premonition during her cultivation that I would perish soon.”

“So she’s been really worried and travelled all the way over here to Misthaven

Ocean, to warn me to be more careful. And also came to visit me.”

“Haha, I stay in this Mountain River Star Struggle Array all day concentrating on cultivation. How on earth could I be at any risk of perishing?”

He Zhenghao laughed, not taking the matter seriously.

At his words, He XinXin frowned and said softly, “It’s strange, the premonition I had before couldn’t have been wrong.”

“But I calculated it again for you, father, after I came here and the fatal danger vanished for some reason.”

Her eyes were filled with confusion and regret, “I don’t know why it happened. If my mother hadn’t stopped me, and I had come earlier, perhaps I could’ve figured out the change in the divine intention and where it has taken root.”

He Zhenghao patted his daughter’s head comfortingly, saying, “The divine calculation is unpredictable. How could a Cultivator know it all? You must have made a mistake, XinXin.”

At this moment, Li Fan chimed in with praise, “Even if it occasionally goes wrong, this method is quite extraordinary.”

“Predicting the future, being forewarned is forearmed, how much advantage could one gain?”

“Is it possible for you, XinXin, to make a calculation for me to see how my future will be?”

Li Fan asked with a smile.

He did this because he wanted to see how far divination in this world could reach.

Whether it could calculate that he was from Small World.

Whether it could calculate that he actually came from another world.

Or even, whether it could calculate the existence of [Real].

If this foundation stage little girl could perceive some clues, Li Fan would have to be even more careful in his future actions.

Otherwise, once he fell into the eyes of a powerful being, he might get directly calculated and reveal his past/history.

He would be caught unawares, thinking that he had hidden himself well, which would be extremely bad.

He Zhenhao also intended for his daughter to show her skills in front of Li Fan, so he didn’t stop her and instead watched her with encouraging eyes.

“Alright then, allow XinXin to show you,” said He XinXin quietly, and then a compass with alternating gold and purple colours suddenly appeared in the air.

One end of the compass pointer was aimed at Li Fan, and the other at He XinXin.

She began to chant, and the pointer spun rapidly.

A miniature figure of Li Fan appeared above the compass.

Characters came out from the compass one by one, revolving constantly around the mini figure.

As the pointer spun faster and faster, the characters began to differentiate within the constant rotation.

Some characters gradually faded and disappeared.

But some became brighter, emitting a purple-gold light.

These were not typical characters, each seeming to be a fusion of many meanings.

The calculation of Li Fan’s future by He XinXin seemed to be hidden within the permutations and combinations of these characters.

Li Fan estimated roughly, there were at least tens of thousands of these purple-gold characters.

He XinXin seemed to be struggling somewhat, beads of sweat continuously dripping from her forehead.

After a while, the purple-gold characters scattered with a bang, returning to the compass.

The hologram of Li Fan became slightly more solid.

He XinXin’s breath was somewhat rapid.

Only after calming down a bit, did she continue staring at Li Fan’s shadow, making her final calculation.

“Huh?”

“Uncle, have you ever been to Yuandao State?”

She waited a long time before suddenly asking this baffling question.

Li Fan was taken aback, but before he could answer, He Zhenghao rushed to speak: “Hehe, Li Fan was previously a wandering cultivator in Yuandao State. In search of a breakthrough opportunity, he came to this Misthaven Ocean.”

“Well, XinXin, is there a problem?”

Seeing the peculiar expression on his daughter’s face, He Zhenghao hastily asked.

A wandering cultivator from Yuandao State was a backstory Li Fan had offhandedly made up the first time he met He Zhenghao in this life.

However…

One knows best about oneself.

Li Fan was very clear that in this life, he had never been to Yuandao State.

Why would this girl ask about Yuandao State?

His gaze flickering, Li Fan stared at He XinXin, waiting for her answer.

He XinXin opened her mouth, intending to speak, but then hesitated.

“Hehe, XinXin, feel free to speak.” Li Fan said with a smile.

He XinXin showed a slight apology on her face: “Please forgive me, Uncle, it’s not that I don’t want to say it.”

“It’s just that I really don’t know how to interpret this [Erosion Tao Rune]…”

Li Fan raised an eyebrow, “What do you mean?”

He XinXin hesitated for a moment, then drew a picture in the air with her hand.

The person in the painting was naturally Li Fan.

On his back, it seemed as if something was there.

As the image kept changing, the invisible entity ferociously bit Li Fan.

Li Fan, apparently oblivious, walked away with no change in his expression.

The entity on his back had vanished without a trace.

The image disappeared.

Furrowing her brow, He XinXin said, “According to the interpretation of the Tao text, in Yuandao State, it seems that you, Uncle, were just attacked by something.”

“Uncle, you were neither injured nor in mortal danger.”

“But oddly, the entire [Erosion Tao Rune] indicates extreme danger.”

“It contradicts itself.”

“That’s why I don’t know how to interpret it.”

Upon hearing this, He Zhenghao chuckled in disbelief, “Daughter, could you have made another mistake? The indicator of extreme danger, wasn’t it the same when you calculated for me before? That carried the risk of death. Isn’t Brother Li Fan alive and well now?…

Li Fan’s heart sank.

“Yuandao State…”

In his Spirit Consciousness, the blue crystal flashed.

All his experiences in Yuandao State began to replay in a flash.

The first time, nothing abnormal was found.

The second time, still nothing.

Under the Secret Technique of [Transmutation God One], Li Fan repeatedly reviewed his past experiences over and over again.

Finally, he noticed something unusual.

A chill rose from his back, as if he had fallen into a harsh winter.

Even when he had narrowly escaped death at the hands of the Celestial Doctor, he had never been this scared.

This was the genuine [fear] Li Fan had felt since crossing over to this world.

In the twelfth era, during the 29th anchor year, he founded the Lunar Palace of Law Passage.

He then retired behind closed doors to study the Infinite Law Heritage passed down by Zhang Zhiliang.

The incident of Chu Xingyang’s forced marriage, followed by the smooth progress of the Lunar Palace’s Great Endeavor of Law Passage.

This should’ve all occurred in the same year.

The conclusion drawn based on the retrospection via the blue crystal was the same.

But in reality…

The incident of Chu Xingyang’s forced marriage, and the first signs of success in the Lunar Palace’s Great Endeavor of Law Passage…

It had occurred in the 39th anchor year.

The ten years in between.

Where had they gone?
