My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 337 – Gold Core Immortal Facing Extinction

Chapter 337: Chapter 314: Gold Core Immortal Facing Extinction

The affinity of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array Core, along with the comprehension of array structure and soul contract traces, are categorized as the three major assessment categories for this closed-door training.

Even its weight is more substantial than the former two.

When Li Fan personally set up the core array and attempted to guide the Array Core into it, he received no response.

He then understood why affinity is so crucial.

The Tianxuan Array Core presently behaves like a haughty goddess, completely ignoring Li Fan’s pleas.

No matter how hard Li Fan tried, he couldn’t sway her in the least.

Specifically, the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array could not function without her.

Without the Array Core, even the largest array could merely be an empty shell.

This central core array can be said to be specially designed for her. Its sole purpose is to perfectly integrate the Array Core into the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array.

Now that the palace has been built, the master is still reluctant to move in.

This naturally puts Li Fan in a difficult position.

Considering the Array Core’s peculiar nature, Li Fan couldn’t even replicate the old practices of the Langya King’s Mansion.

After trying many methods, he still couldn’t guide the Array Core into the formation.

Out of options, Li Fan had to forge a new path.

Since the goddess was adamant about not moving and refusing to enter the palace, Li Fan decided to build a new palace right where she stood.

He dismantled and rebuilt the formed central core array.

With the Array Core as the nucleus, Li Fan spent more than two days constructing a new array structure beside it.

“This way, although it can’t achieve perfect integration, it can still form a barely functioning array.”

“There is no hope for a reward this time, as long as the result is not too disappointing.”

After completing the formation, Li Fan sighed inwardly.

It seemed that Li Fan’s tenacity had somewhat moved the Array Core.

After settling into the core array area, she gently shifted her body when looking at her new home.

The smallest action was all it took to double the integration of the Array Core and the core area.

Overjoyed, Li Fan tried to communicate with the Array Core again.

Unfortunately, her previous advancement seemed to be her limit, and no matter what Li Fan did next, there was no change.

Soon, the seven-day period had passed.

Staring at the barely passable array in front of him, Li Fan shook his head and left the examination area.

“I should be able to get a passing score for the construction part of the array. As for adjusting and calibrating the Array Core, it’s equivalent to turning in a blank paper. But that’s the limit of what I can do in this world.”

“There’s nothing I can do if the Array Core doesn’t cooperate.”

“I heard that among the students who took the exam in the previous rounds, one of them managed to make the Array Core actively embrace him?”

“I don’t know if that’s true or not.”

After completing the exam, it would take two to three months for the results to come out.

Having temporarily left the Universal Courtyard, instead of hanging around in Tianyu City, Li Fan returned to the small courtyard he had previously booked in the Debating Tower.

As he left hurriedly when summoned by Ji Hongdao, he hadn’t vacated the small courtyard.

However, Li Fan had paid a hefty deposit, and his place was still reserved even in his absence.

Entering the small courtyard, he went into the secret room reputed to have maximum confidentiality and impervious to the prying psychic senses of Unity-path cultivators. Li Fan took out the four items representing his basic needs for food and shelter and placed them in the four cardinal directions, uttering a silent chant.

“Blessing Lifespan Xuan Huang Respectful Deity!”

Without wasting time, he intended to initiate the ceremony and enter the Fallen Immortal Realm.

During the closed-door training, the restriction that prevented him from entering had long disappeared. However, at that time, he was only at Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivation. To keep his secrets safe, Li Fan chose to endure a little longer.

Now that he has ascended to the Golden Core Realm, he can freely enter and exit the Fallen Immortal Realm without arousing suspicion from others.

But due to his wariness of those like Ji Hongdao from the Array Strategy Hall, who created the [Tian Xuan Soul Locking Array], Li Fan chose to perform the ceremony in the relatively private Debating Tower.

“Elder Brother Zhang, I know you’re formidable. Please don’t come this time.”

With these thoughts in mind, Li Fan enacted the ritual.

The process of entering this time seemed longer than ever.

His surroundings were pitch black as he lingered in an unfamiliar space of the unknown.

Li Fan was feeling faint and couldn’t concentrate to examine his surroundings. He was left with no choice but to discern his surroundings by feeling.

It felt as though he were in water, but it wasn’t as cold as water.

The liquid surrounding him was warm and comforting.

Whenever the sensation of hunger and weakness arose, an unknown, warm, and calming energy would comfort him, allowing him to fall into a deep slumber.

His body seemed weaker than when he had experienced Tianyang, spending most of his time asleep.

Fortunately, Li Fan’s psychic strength surged after entering the Golden Core Realm.

The duration he could stay in the Fallen Immortal Realm increased from half a month to over two months.

It was almost equivalent to the average Nascent Soul Monk.

Therefore, he didn’t end his journey to the Fallen Immortal Realm in his sleep.

Just like that, Li Fan kept absorbing the warm liquid and the peaceful energy that occasionally appeared.

He felt himself growing stronger continuously.

He had lost track of time, but when there was no more liquid to absorb, an inexplicable feeling surged in his heart.

It was time.

An epiphany suddenly hit Li Fan.

Guided by his body’s instincts, Li Fan used his long beak to continuously peck at the darkness in front of him.

“Thud, thud, thud!”

The pecking was light, but it resounded like earth-shattering thunder to Li Fan.

After trying for a long time, Li Fan started to tire out.

But there was only a nearly invisible crack in the darkness.

A sense of discouragement spontaneously emerged in his heart.

Just then, the warm energy resurfaced once more, rejuvenating Li Fan’s body.

It eradicated the fatigue and exhaustion instantaneously.

With renewed spirit, Li Fan continued his earth-shattering duty.

Whenever he took rest, a touch of peaceful energy would transmit soon after, allowing him to carry on.

He kept repeating this process, and more and more cracks began to appear.

However, Li Fan could also perceive that this energy, which had been sustaining him, seemed to be gradually weakening.

Favorably, before the gentle energy was exhausted, Li Fan finally managed to bore a small hole in the unending darkness.

A ray of sunlight streamed through, parting the darkness, and illuminating Li Fan.

In one breath, Li Fan relentlessly pecked away.

The small hole gradually became larger, eventually forming a big hole big enough for Li Fan to crawl out of.

Li Fan shook his head and pushed himself towards the exit.

There it was, sunlight, fresh wind, the chirping of birds, the scent of flowers…

In an instant, a beautiful and vast world came into Li Fan’s view.

However, he had no time to appreciate the exceptional scenery at the moment.

Because he was incredibly famished.

He glanced back at the broken egg he crawled out from – a wave of realization washed over him.

Without any hesitation, Li Fan hungrily began to consume the egg shell.
