My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 210 – Thousand-year Style Diversity

Chapter 210: Chapter 196: Thousand-year Style Diversity

“Violet Firmament purifies, penetrating the divine soul…”

In an instant, a soul viewing art of not more than tens of thousands of words appeared in Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.

“Younger brother, wait here. I’ll return shortly!” After saying that, Zhang Qianmo floated away without waiting for a response from Li Fan.

Having carefully read through the peculiar soul-seizing art of the Violet

Firmament Sect, Li Fan had already mastered most of it, “Violet Sky Soul

Viewing.”

The text explicitly states that in the current Immortal Cultivation World, various sects, righteously and evil cultivators, immortals, and various demonic beasts are locked in endless conflicts. It’s common to kill for treasures and to seize and refine souls.

Soul-seizing is the act of reading memories in the divine soul of another being through certain means. Each sect has different practices based on their ways and habits.

Some practices are notoriously brutal. The soul-seizing process could cause permanent damage to the divine soul. Cultivators who are seized are effectively lobotomized. Even if they survive, they remain incapacitated, unable to care for themselves.

Others are more uniquely artistic. They peruse divine soul memories but also subtly alter memories and imprint spiritual marks, transforming enemies into loyal servants.

The Violet Firmament Sect’s soul-seizing art is the most moderate.

It doesn’t cause much harm to the divine soul, though the seizure process is painfully like being struck by the Violet Firmament Divine Thunder.

If carefully nurtured afterward, the soul can recover fully.

However, it leaves behind an inexplicable fear. From then on, at the sight or sense of the Violet Firmament Sect members, victims lack the courage to resist.

Like Zhang Qianmo, Li Fan stretched out his hand in a claw-like gesture, reaching towards one of the captives.

He used the Violet Sky Soul Viewing Art. Countless scenes rushed in like a massive wave in an instant.

It is similar to the method of reviving his clone with cultivation. However, the memories viewed by the Violet Sky Soul Viewing Art are more vivid.

Scene after scene unfolded, and Li Fan ignored trivial matters, only inspecting the substantial parts.

This foundation establishment cultivator’s name is Liu Tu.

Over forty years ago, he was just an ordinary villager.

One day, while hunting in the mountains, he lost his way and accidentally wandered into a valley.

He was surprised to find that on this day, this valley, hidden deep in the mountains and rarely visited by humans, was filled with many people. Some were powerful cultivators, while most were ordinary mortals just like he once was.

They were sitting together, focusing their attention on a young cultivator’s passionate speech.

“Decades ago, like most of you here, I was a powerless mortal, unable to control my own destiny. I yearned for the Immortal Path, but unfortunately, I was deprived of spiritual roots and unable to cultivate.”

“Fortunately, I saw the preaching of an Immortal Lord and received the

supreme method.”

“Since then, I no longer needed spiritual roots to cultivate!” “In just ten short years, I have achieved the Golden Core Realm!”

“The immortal have said: The way of immortality, it is…”

Under the young man’s live demonstration, several dozen of the audience, all ordinary mortals, managed to gather the Root of Heaven and Earth to step into the Energy Refining Stage.

Liu Tu was captivated, even though his talent was slightly lacking and he was not able to refine his energy directly.

However, he had committed the “The Technique of Sensing Energy with the Five Spirits” to memory.

After returning home, he successfully attracted energy into his body in less than half a month, becoming a true cultivator.

Since then, Liu Tu found and joined the self-founded organization of the New Law Cultivators, Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

After selecting the most popular “Heavenly Net Divine Technique” as his main cultivation technique, Liu Tu spent another five or six years cultivating and established his Tao Foundations with the Natural Treasure, the Mountain Ginseng.

After that, Chu Liang found him, planning an ambush in Ningyuan City along with Zhang Qianmo and Li Chen to seize the Longevity Fruit.

The title of the Violet Firmament Sect’s inner disciples made Liu Tu somewhat afraid. But with Song Hesong, a Golden Core cultivator, as the leader, coupled with the enticing Violet Firmament Thunder Secret Technique, Liu Tu was somehow convinced to join.

After all, the information stated that the two persons from the Violet

Firmament Sect were merely in their Final Stage Foundation Establishment.

Who would have thought that they would encounter a freak like Zhang Qianmo who could slay Golden Core cultivators despite being at the Foundation Establishment stage?

“Boom!”

Having finished seizing his soul, he threw Liu Tu, who had completely lost his strength, onto the ground. Li Fan slightly massaged his throbbing temples.

He was trying to calm his agitated spirit.

The Soul Viewing Art is immensely powerful, capable of revealing every secret memory within the enemy’s mind.

But it’s not risk-free.

The consumption of one’s own divine sense is staggering, as Li Fan’s condition indicated.

Even worse, if one encounters a feigned weakling who seems completely subdued on the surface, but who launches a deadly counterattack during the soul-seizing process.

If caught off guard and unable to defend in time, not only will one’s divine soul suffer heavy damage, but there’s also the risk of being ‘counter-seized.’

“Considering my Divine Consciousness Incarnation, not as powerful as my original body, the notion that the consumption of energy from Soul Viewing is too high, shouldn’t be so.” Li Fan questioned himself as he recalled the relaxed manner of Zhang Qianmo earlier, doubting if he had used the method correctly.

Nonetheless, he soon figured it out after reviewing Li Chen’s memories and reflecting for a moment.

At this point in time, the major sects provide full-spectrum, cost-unlimited training for their elite disciples.

There’s no lack of genius and treasures, a variety of secret techniques to pick from almost freely.

From actual combat practice, to refining divine sense, even attentiveness from the elders in the sect, there’s personal guidance.

As long as you perform well enough, these are all resources for you to grow stronger quickly.

In comparison, in the current Immortal Cultivation World, a good technique is broken down into different parts, clearly intending to limit the power of cultivators.

Wanting treasures to strengthen yourself? Wanting secret techniques to fight enemies?

Sure, do tasks first and earn contribution points.

Even after earning enough contribution points, it is often still hard to find what you need.

Oh, that might be because your authority level is not high enough. Keep doing merit tasks and accumulate for a few more years!

Although I don’t know what’s happening at the Five Elders Organization, I imagine it’s not much different.

In reality, the majority of cultivators might not even reach the standard of a peripheral cultivator in the eyes of Zhang Qianmo.

After all, according to Liu Tu’s memory, the techniques provided by the original Alliance of Thousands of Immortals all contained all kinds of wonderful and secret methods.

Take for example, the most popular “Heavenly Net Divine Technique”, its content can be said to cover everything, leaving nothing out.

Hiding one’s presence, evasion techniques, divine consciousness refining, body strengthening, refining energy, alchemy, symbol creation, array techniques…

It covers everything in meticulous detail.

This could be said to be the best foundational cultivation technique.

Although it might not be top-notch in every aspect, it makes up for it by being all-encompassing.

Li Fan cannot estimate how much this technique would be sold for in the current Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

This is just one of dozens of techniques provided for free by the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals at this point in time.

Comparing the two, Li Fan couldn’t help but sigh, “Damn it, how did the

Alliance of Thousands of Immortals end up like this?”

If there’s such a big difference with the independent cultivators at this point in time, not to mention comparing with elite disciples from big sects like Zhang Qianmo.

Although Li Fan possesses the exotic treasure RZ, has experienced countless reincarnations, and his divine consciousness far surpasses ordinary cultivators, he’s never undergone systematic strengthening.

Furthermore, he hasn’t had any natural treasures to supplement himself with.

Therefore, there’s still a notable gap between him and Brother Zhang.

Li Fan examined his own situation and frowned slightly.

“Because of excessive consumption of divine consciousness, the time I can stay in the Fallen Immortal Realm has sharply decreased.”

“Originally, I could maintain it for about half a month, but now I can only stay for about seven or eight days.”

“But, according to Chen Ying, I have already garnered some gains. I can leave the Fallen Immortal Realm early.”

“I just need to simulate the ceremony in reverse in my mind.”

“The question now is, do I meet the condition to bring items back to the real world?”

To bring items or information from the Fallen Immortal Realm back to the real world, one must meet certain conditions.

Chen Ying had been rather vague when he explained these conditions.

Since Li Fan can’t find any information regarding the Fallen Immortal Realm in the Tianxuan Mirror, he has no choice but to explore on his own. “The more valuable the item, the more difficult it is to bring it back.”

“It’s not realistic to count on taking the ‘Heavenly Net Divine Technique’ back. If I can bring the ‘Violet Sky Soul Viewing Art’ back, I would have achieved my goal.

“What exactly is the condition? Do I need to kill Zhang Qianmo?”

Right now, Li Fan has no clue.

“No matter, I’ll return to reality first.”

“Perhaps I could recall the details of the Soul Viewing Art in the real world.”

After a moment of contemplation, Li Fan made up his mind.

He immediately began to run the ceremony in reverse in his spirit consciousness.

A wave of dizziness washed over him, and in an instant, the surrounding scene shattered like starlight.

Li Fan’s consciousness returned to the Tianxuan Mirror.

Li Fan began to carefully recall all the events from this trip to the Fallen Immortal Realm.

Every specific incident and every conversation with Brother Zhang remained fresh in his memory.

But when he tried to recall the ‘Violet Sky Soul Viewing Art’ or the ‘Heavenly Net Divine Technique,’ he couldn’t remember anything. It was like drawing water with a bamboo basket – a wasted effort.

“As expected, it wasn’t that easy.”

“Here I was, holding the treasure in my hand, yet it was elusive like a moon reflected in the water or a flower observed in a mirror…”

“This kind of feeling is really unpleasant.”

“I need to go back in one more time and look for the specific conditions.”

“Fortunately, the interval to re-enter was significantly shortened as I voluntarily exited last time.”

During this waiting period, Li Fan bought a Prestige Symbol, disguised himself as a Golden Core Cultivator.

Afterward, he bought a Disguise Pill, dressed up, and arrived at Dingyu Island. Due to the impact of the Spirit Mist Grass incident, the number of cultivators gathered here had declined.

Li Fan casually picked a fish to bet on, then subtly started to ask the Golden Core Cultivators in the crowd about information related to the Fallen Immortal Realm.

After some small talk, Li Fan learned that each of their entrances into the Fallen Immortal Realm was at different locations.

Sometimes they would be thrown directly into a battle between good and evil and be casually killed by the strong on the battlefield.

Sometimes they would occupy the body of a disciple from a certain sect due to good fortune, but trying to find the condition to bring out techniques in such a short time was really challenging. They could only regretfully watch as the techniques vanished from their memory..
