My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1560 - 1341: Bearing the Burden of the Immortal World
Chapter 1560: Chapter 1341: Bearing the Burden of the Immortal World
Just as the Mystic Immortal Boat had conjectured before.
Every gray chess piece is forged from a world.
Li Fan watched the four spinning chess pieces in front of him, and numerous illusions surged into his heart in an instant.
That was the scene of these four worlds of Death Silence before they were transformed.
“Jingji, Baiqiu, Jianhe, Yuanhai.” Li Fan matched the scenes from these worlds with those recorded in Sun Piaomiao’s travel notes of the Immortal Cultivation World one by one.
They are: the endless icy land that stretches for tens of thousands of miles; a multitude of dynasties, established by different cultivators, standing tall on the vast plains; the terrifying sword scar that bisects the world, created by a single sword strike, surrounded by dots of enlightenment sword sects; the vast blue Great Ocean that covers the entire world, where terrible storms rage all year, raising giant waves thousands of feet high, destroying everything on the sea surface. Living beings can only survive at the bottom of the sea…
Although the scenes are different, these four worlds are all brimming with vitality. However, at some moment, an unimaginable apocalyptic power descended.
All in the world fell into stillness.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the incessant pounding sounds like hammer strikes, all life was annihilated in an instant. Only the world itself could survive this destructive onslaught.
Like a block of iron heated and melted into liquid, which after cooling and pounding, is forged into a sword. The four disparate worlds also slowly changed in nature and essence amidst the roaring sounds.
The chaotic illusions disappeared. Eventually returning to the four constantly spinning gray chess pieces.
“Holy Master, this…” Not only Li Fan noticed the extraordinariness of the gray chess pieces, but Yin Shangren’s swiftly spinning gray and white pupils also showed his heart’s unrest at this moment.
“Forging chess pieces with worlds. Such might of a True Immortal truly is extraordinary.” Li Fan gave Yin Shangren a glance and then murmured with a sigh.
“True Immortal, chess pieces?” Yin Shangren, catching the two keywords, shuddered slightly. He immediately said, “Indeed, my premonition was not wrong. The Yin Yang Bead I absorbed earlier may also be related to a True Immortal!”

Li Fan looked at Yin Shangren, waiting for what was to come.
Yin Shangren paused, as if organizing his thoughts, and then spoke very calmly, “At the moment I saw these four chess pieces, a sense of familiarity arose in my heart. Not that I’ve seen them before, but a familiarity belonging to the same kind. Just like when I encountered those World Spirits…”
Li Fan’s gaze flickered, and after a moment of contemplation, he nodded slightly, “The enormous deathly energy and vitality contained in the Yin Yang Beads are indeed beyond the control of us cultivators.”
Yin Shangren then continued, “However, while I feel familiar with these… chess pieces, an innate fear wells up in me at the same time. It’s as if there’s a strict hierarchy, far above me!”
“I also sense that, although the worlds within these chess pieces are completely devoid of the forces of life and death, they still have a tremendous attraction to me. As if devouring them would bring me immense benefits! Benefits so great, they even surpass the Yin Yang Beads!” Yin Shangren’s tone started to drift into a daze, and as the greed in his eyes nearly became uncontrollable, he promptly closed them in time.
After a long while, as if the whispers of a Heavenly Demon had faded from his ears, he gradually returned to normal. But he dared not stare at the four chess pieces any longer.
Li Fan certainly knew where the origin of Yin Shangren’s feelings of fear and temptation towards the gray chess pieces came from.
“Fragments of the laws of the Immortal Realm…”
Activating the modified version of the Sky Mending Record in his mind, in Li Fan’s view, the four chess pieces once again transformed into interwoven lines.
That is the Principle of Worlds that has been constructed and transformed.
Li Fan compared the similarities and differences between them.
Tens of thousands of years have passed, and after the Star Sea broke and revived, the Tao that is the cornerstone of world building has not changed much.
Through continual Reincarnation, Li Fan has gained a profound understanding of the Principle of Heaven and Earth in the Cultivation World. After several observations and comparisons, he indeed discovers the parts within these four chess pieces that do not belong to the “Lower Realm.”
They appear no different from the lines representing the ordinary Principle of Heaven and Earth.
In fact, they are a superior substitute for the laws of the Lower Realm, reborn after elevation and metamorphosis.
Although they are merely fragments used for construction, in Li Fan’s eyes they are as brilliant as the most dazzling gems in the world.
If the Principle of Heaven and Earth of the Lower Realm is likened to a low hill no more than a hundred meters high, then the portions originating from the Immortal Realm within these four chess pieces are magnificent mountain ranges stretching for a hundred miles, encompassing everything and full of vitality.
The two are not even comparable.
And whether by coincidence or not, the Immortal Realm Law Fragments contained in these four chess pieces are all different from each other.
“The laws contained within each chess piece are like pieces of a puzzle. After completely fusing them, perhaps they will form a complete picture.”
“There are a total of twelve gray chess pieces, which should correspond to the twelve Daoist markers left behind by Sun Piaomiao back in the day.”
“That being said…”
“There should actually be thirteen. The Medicine King Cauldron, the ancient heritage of the Medicine King Sect in the Xuanhuang World, is not within the range of sensing.”
Thinking of this, Li Fan couldn’t help but look towards the Outer World of Xuanhuang World.
The Medicine King Cauldron of the Medicine King Sect is still struggling near the Immortal Ruins, not having returned to Xuanhuang World.
“Since the day of its fall is not far away, just wait for it. There’s no need to take risks and salvage it from the Immortal Ruins.”
Li Fan thought so and reached out to capture a chess piece.
Sure enough, he immediately felt a peculiar sensation rise in his heart.
In the unknown, he sensed the approximate locations of those belonging to the gray chess pieces in the Star Sea.
“There are a total of four here.”
