My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1421 - 1286_2
The two of them followed their plan stealthily and arrived near the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals’ Heaven City in Tianyu Province.
"It should be here, the Tianyu State Heng Family," Xu Ke observed, sizing up the surroundings.
"Why the trouble of finding a family with access to the Museum of Divine Artifacts? Why come all the way here?" Yin Shangren rubbed his scalp, growing impatient.
"The original plan was so. But the Emperor sent a message out of the blue, saying that something had changed with the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals. The security for entering and leaving the Immortal Alliance Headquarters suddenly tightened. Consequently, there aren’t many cultivators left who still have access to the Divine Collection Pavilion. Among these, the Tianyu State Heng Family is the most suitable target for our actions."
"The family is prominent, all thanks to their weaving techniques. Their strength isn’t too formidable, and at the same time, they keep a low profile, maintaining a low presence in the public’s mind..." Xu Ke explained telepathically.
Yin Shangren’s gaze pierced through the Heng family’s defenses, revealing a cold smile: "The best targets should be those two girls, right? And they are even mother and daughter..."
"Indeed, it’s them, Heng Ruoshui and He XinXin. We only need to wait for them to go out, capture them, and switch their identities."
"The Emperor insisted that unless necessary, we should not harm anyone," Xu Ke added.
Yin Shangren: "Don’t worry, such delicate skin and flesh aren’t to my taste anyway. Are we two to become women? Can’t we pick another target?"
Xu Ke chuckled: "Are you still concerned about this outer shell?"

Yin Shangren waved his hand dismissively: "That’s true. Too lazy to run around anymore. Let’s make this quick. I can hardly wait to see Mr. Bai’s skull."
The Heng family’s mother and daughter did not make the two men wait long.
The next day, He XinXin sneaked out to play and was silently subdued by the two.
Two days later, Heng Ruoshui seemed invited to a banquet and left the Cave Mansion. She too, was captured by the two in an instant.
Looking at the bound and unconscious Heng family mother and daughter, Yin Shangren touched his chin: "The Methods taught by the Emperor are indeed useful. The Taoist Compass inside this child is rather extraordinary, capable of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil, and of predictive Derivation. It could be considered half a Heaven’s Oddity, perhaps a rebirth from a dissolved ancient Immortal Instrument..."
"But with the [One-Handed Sky Shrouding Technique] bestowed by the Emperor, this little girl had no perception of the imminent danger at all."
Xu Ke smiled: "Perhaps it’s because we two harbored no intention to harm others. Let’s proceed."
They each took a drop of Blood Essence from the foreheads of the Heng family mother and daughter.
Xu Ke received it and pressed it into his brow.
Yin Shangren was much more brusque, his scalp splitting open a gap to allow his Tao Foundation to consume it.
With a rustling surge of flesh and blood, in the blink of an eye, Xu Ke and Yin Shangren had transformed into the likenesses of Heng Ruoshui and He XinXin.
The appearance, aura, and even the fluctuations of the Divine Soul were almost perfectly identical.
"The mystique transmitted by the Holy Dynasty is truly extraordinary," Xu Ke exclaimed in admiration.
Yin Shangren closed his eyes to sense the transformation: "The self at will is the true self. Changing without bounds, gods and ghosts cannot discern..."
Having hidden the mother and daughter, the disguised Xu Ke and Yin Shangren flew towards Heaven City in Tianyu.
Cultivators who apply to visit the [Museum of Divine Collection] need to go through the local Governance Hall to apply to the Immortal Alliance Headquarters.
After the consent and approval of the Immortal Alliance Headquarters, a guide monk will come to lead them inside.
In Tianyu Province, being Heng Ruoshui was the best pass.
And it was quite normal for her to lead a younger family member to visit the Museum of Divine Artifacts.
The journey was smooth and unobstructed, and the application was quickly sent to the Immortal Alliance Headquarters.
The response efficiency of the Immortal Alliance Headquarters was not as swift. It took seven days before they finally received a response.
The dignitaries of Tianyu State seemed insignificant in front of the guide monk of the Immortal Alliance.
The dark-robed guide monk, expressionless, casually instructed a few things to note when entering the Immortal Alliance Headquarters.
He then led the two to Tianzhou City in Heavenly Pivot State, and in a deep room within the Governance Hall, opened the teleportation gate to the Immortal Alliance Headquarters.
Stepping into the Light Ring, a rush of illusions surged towards them.
Even with the strength of Yin Shangren and Xu Ke at that moment, they could not stop it.
But Xu Ke returned to normal in an instant; after all, the Heng Ruoshui he impersonated had been to the Immortal Alliance Headquarters before.
Whereas the He XinXin impersonated by Yin Shangren trembled slightly, and after a moment, opened her eyes.
The guide monk, following the usual practice, explained the reason for the illusion’s appearance. Then he casually asked, "What did you see?"
As instructed by the Emperor, Yin Shangren said, "The Heavenly Venerable Law Phases, soaring through the sky, propagating Law to all beings."
The guide monk nodded without further questions.
Following the path through the Void, on the way to the Museum of Divine Artifacts, Yin Shangren and Xu Ke silently communicated through telepathy.
Yin Shangren: "Interesting. I saw the figure of Law Transmission, floating beyond the realm of Xuanhuang. The perspective was from above, looking down on Xuan Huang. The Xuanhuang World wasn’t nearly as vast as it is now, so it must be a scene shortly after the Law Transmission reached Longevity."
"What did you see?" Yin Shangren asked.
Xu Ke immediately transmitted an image.
It seemed like a chaos void, with no discernable specific location.
Two silhouettes stood opposite each other, faces unclear.
"Who are you?"
"I am you."
"You are me..." the voice hesitated.
After a brief silence, a slow shake of the head: "No. I’m not like you..."
