My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 466: Chapter 438: Rain of Heavens, Rain of Replication

“Speaking of which, this Heaven-Earth Swallowing Technique is quite similar to the [Returning Origin Toad].”

“Both can devour leylines, and neither knows when to stop.”

“It seems that many techniques in the ancient times were created by imitating exotic beasts.”

Li Fan recalled what he saw in the [All Techniques Strive] zone in the Museum of Divine Artifacts, and nodded thoughtfully.

“Unfortunately, while deriving techniques inheriting the characteristics of exotic beasts, they also bring their drawbacks.”

“However… ”

“If one could optimize it by improving with Yan Fajue and remove the disadvantage of losing their consciousness, it would be an extremely powerful divine technique.”

Thinking this, Li Fan shook his head.

“There may not be a chance in this life. I am about to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, and have already cultivated ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret’ to its limit. Pushing it to a higher realm is the most pressing task.”

The face of a rebellious young cultivator suddenly appeared in Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.

That was Han Yi, who in his previous life successfully won the opportunity to extrapolate the Unified Dao Technique with Yan Fajue, thanks to the life-prolonging Tian Du Hua Feather Pill.

“To directly push ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret’ to the Unity-Path level, I need to seize his fortune.”

“However, something seems off about this man. He does not seem to have an overflowing destiny.”

“In the previous life, my clone who accompanied him to explore the ruins of Tiandu, not only gained nothing, there were even endless dangers, almost costing their lives.”

“To be honest, my clone, which has almost no fortune, is much better than him.”

“But he actually won the Dingyu Lottery and holds the Tian Du Hua Feather Pill, such treasures, that’s a fact.”

Li Fan frowned slightly.

“I remember, before he got rich overnight, he was once fooled by a Foundation Establishment Master.”

“I can pay special attention to him then.”

“See how he turned from being desperate to completely turning over.”

After pondering for a long time, the clone finally woke up.

Li Fan put away all the spirit stones and the Enlightenment Pills, leaving the clone to continue to stay on Taian Island.

He then transformed his face and went through the teleportation array to the northeasternmost corner of the Misthaven Ocean.

The destination is naturally Yin Ying Island where Yin Shangren resides.

There are not many people that Li Fan is concerned about in the whole Misthaven Ocean.

Yin Shangren is indeed one of them.

Not only because of his perceived [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation], which was verified to be feasible by Su Changyu in the previous life.

It just has some flaws that need to be perfected.

What Li Fan is most concerned about is that after more than ten years of studying Immortal-Ordinary Miasma, he ultimately chose to end his life.

Even a lowly insect scrambles for life.

Obsessed people like Yin Shangren, theoretically, won’t easily throw away their lives.

But he defied this, which only means one thing.

He truly perceived the mystery of Immortal-Ordinary Miasma at the end, and this result was unbearable for him.

He lost the will to continue living, completely hopeless.

He then chose to burn himself to death.

Li Fan is also very interested in this mystery.

It took him three days to quietly arrive outside of Yin Ying Island.

The intermittent wailing of mortals could be heard from afar.

Li Fan did not plan to disturb Yin Shangren, but only intended to use his Formless Killing Machine to monitor.

However, the result greatly surprised him.

The moment the Formless Killing Machine locked onto Yin Shangren, the viewpoint suddenly split into hundreds of parts.

Except for the one on the ground, who was absorbedly conducting experiments.

The rest were all broken and tattered bodies that looked exactly like Yin Shangren, lying in the basement.

From the Cosmic perspective, Li Fan discovered that these shattered, seemingly lifeless corpses, were actually still alive!

Quietly lying in the basement, they occasionally stir their bodies and roll their eyes imperceptibly.

Looking at their eyes, Li Fan even got the impression that these bodies seemed to be “thinking”.

This eerie scene sent a chill down Li Fan’s spine.

“The Formless Killing Machine’s target vision has differentiated, which means, from the Cosmos’ perspective, these living corpses and Yin Shangren are the same person.”

Li Fan thought this, becoming increasingly somber.

He remembered that Yin Shangren once said that he had dissected hundreds of bodies in this basement, and only then did he understand [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation].

Looking at the current situation, he most likely dissected “himself” one by one, while “he” was still conscious.

“Truly a madman…”

“No wonder he could comprehend [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation], such a heaven-defying technique.”

“If he was interested in cultivation, I’m afraid the Realm of Unification would be within his easy reach.”

“Too bad he’s consumed with researching the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma.”

Li Fan, staring at the only normally functioning Yin Shangren, couldn’t help but exclaim in awe.

In all his reincarnations, he has seen countless so-called geniuses.

Even his senior brother Zhang;’s grand ambition to suppress all epochs with his Dharma, and Mr. Bai’s instant transformation from mortal to god, are existences that will be remembered for centuries.

But to Li Fan, none of them seemed as strange as Yin Shangren, a cultivator at Foundation Establishment Stage.

Li Fan spied on Yin Ying Island for several days.

Yin Shangren, like a seemingly tireless machine, conducted experiments, recorded data, and pondered.

Then repeated the experiments.

There was no sign of weariness on his face, only deep obsession.

Li Fan also noticed that whenever Yin Shangren fell into deep thought,

The hundreds of corpses in the basement revealed increasingly noticeable “thoughtful” expressions on their faces.

“As if hundreds of ‘himself’ are pondering the problem at the same time…”

Li Fan realized.

“Perhaps this is the reason he was able to unravel the mystery of the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma.”

Li Fan also remembered Yin Shangren’s delusional mumbling to Su Changyu in his previous life.

“Yes, where did these bodies come from?”

“Ah! I remember!”

“There was a huge downpour! Countless corpses fell from the sky like rain, and I just took the opportunity to gather some…”

Li Fan squinted slightly: “The hundreds of bodies picked up from the heavy rain, Are they all his own?”

“What bizarre happenings.”

After much thought and unable to find any related instances among the secret news of the Xuanhuang World that he had read before, Li Fan could only set it aside temporarily.

He continued his surveillance for a few more days until Yin Shangren ran out of mortal materials on Yin Ying Island.

Yin Shangren had to go out to find mortals for experimentation.

Only then did Li Fan quietly leave.

“Keep an eye on him for now. Anyway, with the [Taoist Divine One] secret technique, it won’t affect my usual cultivation.”

Li Fan gave Yin Shangren’s hurriedly departing figure a deep last look, then transformed back into a “Heavenly Machine Sect cultivator”, and returned to Ten Thousand Immortals Island.

He ingested an Enlightenment Pill, activated the [Spirit Awakening State].

Li Fan temporarily secluded himself for intense cultivation.

Under the dual enhancement, even though Li Fan was practicing “The Mountain-Seating Secret”, so difficult to cultivate, his progress was swift.

Two months later, with a surge of pure feedback from his cultivation suddenly appearing in his Dantian, Li Fan woke up from seclusion.
