Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Where Does the Immortal Come From

549690339

Da Xuan Kingdom, Xuanjing City, Grand Master Mansion.

Li Fan stood holding a wine cup, looking at the officials present to celebrate his birthday. Although he was of old age, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride.

As you can see, the Grand Master Mansion is filled with officials today. This display of power is overwhelming.

Li Fan, once a poor scholar, had just arrived in this world.

Over the past fifty years, he has risen from having nothing to being an influential Grand Master. The journey could easily be written into a novel of several million words.

What more could one ask for in life!

Li Fan stroked his beard and finished his wine.

“A toast to Grand Master”

The officials present echoed in unison.

Li Fan felt even more pleased.

Just then, pandemonium erupted outside.

“Look! What is that!”

“Fireballs from the sky; this must be a sign, an omen! Quickly, inform the Grand Master!”

“It looks like they’re flying towards our Grand Master Mansion!”

…

Hearing the commotion outside, Li Fan furrowed his brow.

The lively hall suddenly turned silent.

Li Fan stood up and was the first to step out.

But before he could reproach his servants and express his discontent, he was mesmerized by the sight in the sky.

In the far sky, two silver lights, one trailing the other like shooting stars, hurried in his direction.

“What is…” Li Fan was struck dumb.

In a blink of an eye, the two shooting stars arrived above Xuanjing City and abruptly stopped.

At the same moment, a voice resounded like thunder, its echoes bursting in people’s ears.

“Dao Xuanzi! Do not push your luck!”

…

The crowd was stunned, and some even cried out “Immortal Teacher” and knelt on the ground.

At that moment, a nearly forgotten word sprung up from the depths of Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.

“Cult…Cultivators!” Li Fan froze in utter shock, muttering to himself, “How could this be possible…”

The two cultivators in the sky, however, seemed entirely indifferent to the thoughts of the mortals beneath them.

Another voice replied, “Kou Hong! Did you think I will let you go if you flee to the Immortal Realm? Hand over the technique you’ve acquired. Otherwise, I will not rest until I destroy you!”

“What a Joke! I was trapped in the Foundation Establishment Phase for a hundred years, nearing death. I got this Golden Core Technique, how could I possibly hand it to others!” Kou Hong scoffed, an air of disdain filled his voice.

“Exactly!” Dao Xuanzi sighed deeply, “The Golden Core Path is such that there can only be one. There are many Golden Core Techniques in the world, but there are even more cultivators trapped in the Foundation Establishment Phase.”

His tone suddenly turned vicious, “As such, since the path to longevity lies before me now, how could I possibly let you go?”

Kou Hong laughed loudly, “What a joke! We were brothers for a hundred years, and now we’re crossing swords for a sliver of life!”

Dao Xuanzi sneered without replying.

Suddenly, Kou Hong said, “I know I’m not your match, and it won’t be easy to escape today. But here are so many mortals. Do you think you can withstand such a dense Immortal-Ordinary Miasma!”

Dao Xuanzi exclaimed in shock, “Kou Hong! What the hell are you planning!”

Kou Hong laughed maniacally, “Just seeking a ray of life…nothing more!”

Hearing the conversation between the two cultivators above him, Li Fan had a sudden sense of trepidation. Before he could react, he saw a red fireball exploding in the sky above Xuanjing City.

“Boom boom boom!”

Explosions echoed in Li Fan’s ears. His sight was engulfed by crimson in an instant, and he fainted.

…

When Li Fan woke up, he wasn’t sure how much time had passed.

At first, he was disoriented. After a while, he remembered what had occurred.

Li Fan coughed, spitting out blood. He climbed up, trembling, and looked around.

It was still night, and the once luxurious Grand Master Mansion was now in ruins.

The air was filled with the stench of burnt corpses.

Everyone who was present at the evening were now dead, their souls departed.

Li Fan’s wives and five sons were not spared either.

There was no expression on Li Fan’s aged face, and his eyes seemed hollow.

After standing still for a while, he managed to drag his weak body out of the Mansion.

Just a moment ago, Xuanjing City was a bustling metropolis, now it had turned into a hellish landscape of blood and fire. Everything in sight was broken bodies and collapsed buildings.

Presumably, less than one percent of the populace survived this catastrophe.

All this chaos was because of the two “Immortal Teachers”, the cultivators who appeared suddenly.

Li Fan dropped to the ground, exhausted, and slumped against the broken remnants of a wall.

His hearing was destroyed in the recent explosion. However, this appeared to be immaterial now.

At this moment, all he wants to do is laugh.

How can there be cultivators in this world?

From the moment he took office, he was using the power in his hands to search for any traces of the Immortal Way.

When he became the Imperial Teacher, above all others, he had searched the entire world!

From the Frozen Ocean in the north, to Great Ocean in the south, from Xu Yuan in the east, to Mountain Lian in the west.

There is absolutely no trace of an Immortal in the entire Great Xuan!

But today, when he is getting old and has completely given up hope in his later years, two cultivators descended from the sky, came to his presence, and without a word, shattered everything he owned.

Is this what it means to be an Immortal?

And where do the Immortals come from?

All the anger and unwillingness, in the end, turned into endless confusion.

Heaven is playing with humans!

At the same time, Li Fan also feels extremely fortunate.

Fortunately, before he died, he finally confirmed the existence of the Immortals!

Otherwise, after starting his next life, wouldn’t he have wasted another fifty years in vain?!

That’s right! He, Li Fan, a mere mortal, has gone from a small scholar to the Imperial Teacher known through the realm. Is it possible without any help?

This is also the reason why he was able to narrowly escape from the hands of the Immortals.

“[Real]!”

Li Fan muttered in his heart, and suddenly, the surrounding view darkened, as if a thick layer of water curtain had been laid between. It appeared somewhat illusory and unclear.

“Turning Fake into Real.”

Seven characters lit up in the dark, and then suddenly dispersed, turning into a light curtain.

“Charging complete.”

“Do you wish to virtualize the current scene, and return to the original anchor point.”

Two lines of small characters appeared one after another.

At the same time, scenes appeared one after another, swiftly occupying the entire light curtain.

That was the life of Li Fan in this world for fifty years.

Li Fan looked at the various scenes of himself and was stunned for a moment.

“[Real].”

This is the name Li Fan gave to this strange treasure he always carried with him.

It only has one function, which is to Turn Fake into Real, to transform reality into illusion!

The so-called transforming reality into illusion means to turn all Li Fan’s real experiences into simulated illusory experiences, enabling Li Fan to return to the initial set anchor point, which is just when he crossed over to this world.

In fact, this is already the second life for Li Fan.

In his first life, although Li Fan was ambitious, he was just an ordinary person. After failing several times, he finally gave up his ambition of studying and becoming an official at the age of thirty. He started a small business, became an ordinary wealthy man, then got married and had children, and lived an ordinary life. Only when he was old and about to die of disease did he finally awaken the [Real].

This led to the unstoppable rise of Li Fan in his second life.

It’s a pity that now it seems that he has used it in the wrong place.

After thinking for a moment, Li Fan does not choose to end this life immediately. Before then, he still has a few things to do.

Turning off the light curtain, he returns to reality, Li Fan gathers his strength to deal with the aftermath of Xuanjing City being devastated by the Immortal.

After searching for some survivors, Li Fan, with his prestige over the years, has finally managed to stabilize the people’s hearts slightly.

Although Li Fan can’t hear, he can still find pen and paper. Even though communication is a bit troublesome, it does not prevent Li Fan’s orders from being passed on.

First, Li Fan ordered his loyal troops stationed outside the city to rush to Xuanjing to maintain order after the disaster. Then he sent orders to the surrounding cities to distribute food and official staff to Xuanjing.

Most of the buildings in Xuanjing were destroyed in an instant. After the garrison took over, Li Fan simply stayed in the military camp to manage the aftermath.

With Li Fan’s orders, resources and talents from surrounding cities were continuously sent to Xuanjing City.

One month later, the Xuanjing City, which was full of ruins, began to regain some vitality.

After the Great Xuan Kingdom finally recovered from the attack by the Immortals, only then did Li Fan start to issue an order for all regions to collect information about the two Immortals that appeared that night.

This included where they came from initially, where they went afterwards, and if the two had any other conversations along the way, etc.

Unfortunately, after months of investigation, apart from knowing these two cultivators seemed to have come from the direction of Xu Yuan in the east, they found nothing.

The affair Li Fan had hoped for, that the two Immortals would both perish together, did not happen.

“I should never have expected such a thing.” Li Fan sighed quietly in his heart. “In that case, there is nothing I desire in this life.”

Standing inside the newly-built Grand Master Mansion, Li Fan once again triggered [Real].

“Do you wish to virtualize the current scene, and return to the original anchor point.”

Li Fan didn’t hesitate any longer and chose yes.

On the light curtain, countless vivid scenes all froze at the same time. Then, the splendid life of power and wealth in this life shattered like a dream and exploded, turning into shooting stars that flew into Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.

The scenes kept flashing rapidly in front of Li Fan as if on a carousel, until they froze on the scene where two cultivators were facing off high above the Grand Master Mansion.

“Dao Xuanzi, Kou Hong.” Li Fan softly named both of them. “Fifty years later, I will be waiting for you in Xuanjing City.”

“Wealth and rank are but passing clouds to me.” Li Fan’s consciousness started to blur, but his will and goal became more determined than ever.

“In the next life, I will capture an Immortal!”

The brilliance in his spirit consciousness gradually faded away, and Li Fan slowly fell into a deep sleep.
