My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1644 - 1377: The Death of Li Fan - Part 2

"Actually, using [Reincarnation] to simulate an entire lifetime on its own isn’t terrifying. What’s truly terrifying is, I have no memory of it left at all."

Li Fan’s face showed a trace of gloom.

"Up to now, every simulation by Reincarnation has been built with me as the core. Every cycle of reincarnation is something I personally experienced."

"But now, Reincarnation is still one with me, showing no signs of going out of control."

"There’s only one possibility: during that simulation, due to some unforeseen change..."

"I died."

A chilling gleam flashed through Li Fan’s eyes.

His body stiffened abruptly for a moment, then continued pondering: "I didn’t even manage to activate Reincarnation deliberately before I died."

"It was Reincarnation itself that reversed everything once again."

"Thus, that lifetime’s experience only exists within Reincarnation and not within my own memories."

"After consuming Kou Hong’s near-Eternal Memento, Reincarnation finally regurgitated those memories."

His thoughts churned, deriving such a conclusion, and the unease in Li Fan’s heart slightly lessened.

Though it didn’t entirely dissipate, he had at least identified a possible reason.

"I have already died once?"

A chilling sensation like never before crept through Li Fan’s heart. freewēbnoveℓ.com

"So those fragmented memories learned from Reincarnation aren’t experiences of this lifetime, but rather occurrences from the lifetime in which I died."

"I’m now moving forward along the same trajectory as before."

"If no adjustments are made..."

"A dead-end awaits!"

As though glimpsing the scene of his future demise, Li Fan’s heart unexpectedly relaxed slightly.

"Essentially speaking, in this lifetime, Reincarnation absorbed the Trident Tree and initiated a simulation. In that simulation, I was unaware of the divergence and continued executing the original plan to elevate the Xuanhuang World into an Elevated Immortal Domain by Unity-Path with the Heavenly Earth Immortal Soul."

"Failing to perceive the hidden crisis, despite countless preparations, I still perished and failed."

Li Fan exhaled deeply.

"The Trident Tree truly is a Divine Object. Without this prior simulation, I might have stumbled into the same failure."

"Who knows if Reincarnation will be willing to absorb it again in the next lifetime?"

Li Fan’s thoughts swiftly returned to the pressing matter.

If everything Li Fan speculated is true, then now a life-threatening question lies directly before him.

What exactly caused Li Fan’s death in the simulation?

Currently, Li Fan has Immortal Arrays and the Supreme Escape Technique protecting him.

Moreover, he has Tianyang and Qiu Shui as two Great Protectors.

Even if the Unity-Path plan fails, it shouldn’t be so dire as to prevent Reincarnation from reacting in time.

"Honestly, things capable of genuinely threatening me aren’t numerous."

"Within the High Wall, there’s the True Immortal in the Immortal Ruins, and the bones of the True Immortal of the Xuanhuang Ocean of Darkness, both seeking survival. Plus, the black mists representing the Path-obliterating Calamity."

"Outside the High Wall, there are all unknown existences."

At this thought, Li Fan’s contemplations paused briefly, and his face revealed a flicker of realization.

"And... one of the primary materials for elevating Xuanhuang into an Elevated Immortal Domain, the Immortal Domain Fragment left behind by Sun Piaomiao."

Sorting through all other possibilities, he eliminated them as potential threats, leaving these suspicious targets.

"The Path-obliterating Calamity is a terrifying tribulation specifically targeting the Immortal World. Although it hasn’t shown tendencies of arrival yet, only the endless black mists have surfaced. However, there’s no guarantee it won’t manifest suddenly at the moment I elevate Xuanhuang."

"Even countless True Immortals of old couldn’t escape it. If caught off guard, I probably wouldn’t escape death, either."

Li Fan first confirmed what he thinks is the likeliest cause of his failure.

"Then there’s the Ocean of Darkness and Immortal Ruins, those two True Immortals—one dead, one alive. I’ll use the Xuanhuang Living Beings Array to obstruct them momentarily."

"As for the forces beyond the High Wall... with the High Wall itself as a cover, considering my experience from the previous lifetime, I’d still have ample time to respond. But not enough!"

"When the High Wall collapses and the Star Sea surges into chaos, I must stir up colossal waves within the Star Sea itself to shroud foreign eyes!" Li Fan instantly thought of the endless vitality within the crevice depression and the [Form of Living Beings].

"The arrival of external forces will inevitably pose extreme threats to the Star Sea itself. With the Taija Divine Art as a catalyst..."

"The Star Sea Infinite Force should delay external forces momentarily."

After deliberating, Li Fan added another layer of preparations to his already extensive planning.

"Lastly, there’s the Immortal Domain composed of numerous chess pieces."

"Although I tried to fuse it previously, making significant progress without sensing the presence of any True Immortal inside—a purely Immortal Domain world."

"Upon reflection now, that approach was still a bit reckless."

Li Fan’s expression turned solemn: "After all, dealing with a True Immortal, it’s never difficult for them to conceal themselves from my perception."

"How can I be sure it’s truly safe if I don’t fully unveil the Immortal Domain?"

"At most, it costs one cycle of reincarnation, twenty to thirty years."

With these thoughts, Li Fan made his decision.

No matter what, the Immortal Domain among the chess pieces must be fully unveiled to confirm its safety.

"The reappearance of the Immortal Domain will surely shake the Star Sea."

"I must locate a secure spot and prepare early."

"If a True Immortal is indeed hidden within, I’ll decisively deploy Reincarnation and search for alternative world-anchor methods in the next lifetime."

"If there’s nothing suspicious inside, all the better..."

Li Fan still wished to minimize the impact of unveiling the Immortal Domain.

"Let the depths of the depression offset the height of the Immortal Domain."

"The crevice depression, the lowest point of the Star Sea, appears to be an excellent location."

"Moreover, the complex terrain of the crevice, combined with the Form of Living Beings, should confuse the potential lurking enemies."

Li Fan thus returned to the depths beneath the Star Sea.

Without disturbing Xu Ke, who was tirelessly expanding the region.

He reached the most central area of the region that had been roughly explored, ensuring minimal interference from external factors.

With an unprecedented level of seriousness, Li Fan meticulously arranged layers upon layers of Immortal Arrays.

Utilizing every technique in his arsenal, Li Fan resolutely commenced the full unveiling of the Immortal Domain.

Humming noises...

Within the Immortal Arrays, a gust of Big Wind seemed to arise, mercilessly tearing and raging.

The arrays Li Fan took pride in resembled a dilapidated Thatched Cottage, barely holding together and dangerously fragile.
