My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 640 - 606: The Darkest Void Sea
Chapter 640: Chapter 606: The Darkest Void Sea
“It’s quite possible. And reasonable.” After pondering for a while, Li Fan slowly nodded his head.
This conclusion also explained a long-standing confusion of Li Fan.
When the Immortal Ruins appeared, why didn’t it directly devour the Xuanhuang World?
Instead, the cultivators in it had enough time to constantly capture the surrounding Cave Heavens and the Mini Worlds, to fight against it?
Looking at the terrifying suction power of the Immortal Ruins now, if it were just the initial Xuanhuang World, it should have been extremely hard to resist.
Moreover, capturing Mini Worlds is not a day’s work. The countless Cave Heavens and Worlds were probably the result of relentless efforts of the Mystic Sky Sect and Immortal Dao Ten Sects over thousands of years.
All these show that the suction power of the Immortal Ruins is increasing day by day.
As for why the suction power is getting stronger and stronger…
It is quite possible that it’s because the Xuanhuang World is getting closer and closer to the Immortal Ruins.
In Li Fan’s Spirit Consciousness, a picture instantly appeared.
In the endless Void Sea, like boats, many Cultivation Worlds are floating.
Suddenly one day, a black hole called [Immortal Ruins] appeared above the Void Sea. freēwēbnovel.com
A strong suction force constantly devoured everything around it, forming a vortex.
Affected by the Immortal Ruins, the Cultivation Worlds in the Void Sea were uncontrollably being pulled closer to the [Immortal Ruins].
At first, because of the very small changes, people in the Cultivation Worlds didn’t notice.
Only when they fell towards the [Immortal Ruins] at an accelerating speed did they realize something was wrong.
Therefore, like a drowning person would try to grasp everything within reach for survival, the cultivators of the Xuanhuang World began to use “ropes” to tie themselves to the relatively stable “rocks” in the farthest part of the Void Sea, like the Cave Heavens and Mini Worlds in an attempt to delay their fate of demise.
Indeed, during this process, there would have been some cultivators who wanted to abandon ship and find a new “vessel”.
But if everyone did so, the Xuanhuang World would probably only sink faster.
Therefore, the helmsmen of the Xuanhuang World, be it the Mystic Sky Sect, or the Immortal Dao Ten Sects, or even the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and Five Elders Organization, all chose to keep silent about the real situation of the Xuanhuang World, to avoid such a situation from happening.
They originally thought that with the pull of these ropes, they could slowly extricate the Xuanhuang World from the vortex.
But facts proved that they were wrong.
“The ‘weight’ of the cultivators might be related to these ‘ropes’. Originally, the world was directly connected to the Cave Heaven World, but after the cultivators expanded their realm, they became part of the connection,”
“If they suddenly die, it’s equivalent to a few strands of rope suddenly disappearing.”
“Although the Cultivator going up to the heavens after death and Cave Heaven returning to Heaven and Earth, Heaven and Earth need time to automatically repair the rope.”
“If the speed of cultivator’s death is normal, it doesn’t matter. Once it exceeds a certain threshold…”
Li Fan recalled that in his previous life, Ji Hongdao faced Sister Zhao in Sky-Spirit State and used [Tianxuan Soul Locking Array] to kill the cultivators of a state in an instant, using mutual destruction as a deterrent.
In the instant when he lost many cultivator’s lives, even the entire Xuanhuang World trembled slightly.
“Those affiliated Cave Heaven Mini Worlds are not so simple when the survival of Xuanhuang World is at stake. The so-called ‘rope’ may not be so easy to sever.”
“Otherwise, there would be cultivators who would escape into the Mini World through the Immortal Termination Channel, and then cut off its connection with the Xuanhuang World.”
“It’s not that they don’t want to, but that they can’t do it.”
“And the behavior of the Empire Mini World opening a path in the Void through a hundred thousand Splitting Realm Whales, is more like extending the rope than severing it,”
“Once the extended length, that is, the distance between them and the Xuanhuang World, is sufficient, when the Xuanhuang World falls into the Immortal Ruins and turns into dust, the things tied to the other end of the rope suddenly disappear, they might be able to escape.”
“Unfortunately, this process takes too long and the Xuanhuang World may not be able to hold on for that long.”
Li Fan suddenly thought, if the Xuanhuang World can capture Cave Heaven and Mini World through ropes, why didn’t they tie the rope to other Cultivation Worlds of the same scale as the Xuanhuang World in the distance?
In theory, a complete world should certainly do a better job than a Cave Heaven.
“They might have tried it before, but failed,”
“Or perhaps…”
“I simply cannot pinpoint their location.”
A thought suddenly occurred to Li Fan.
As a ship sailing in the Void Sea, the Cultivation World would certainly not want to be dragged down by those already under the influence of the Immortal Ruins.
After seeing the current situation on the Void Sea, in order to avoid using themselves as a lifesaver.
They might very likely take the initiative to hide their own world.
It might be impossible for the Cave Heaven and Small World to do so.
But it should be possible for the highly developed Cultivation World.
Or rather, those who can’t do this are probably already affected by the numerous worlds that are crashing down and also falling towards the Immortal Ruins.
Moreover, because of the existence of the Immortal Ruins, the entire Void Sea has been affected, to a greater or lesser degree. The location of all Cultivation Worlds has relatively shifted.
The previously reliable [Taoist Landmarks], are all useless.
Finding other hidden Cultivation Worlds again might be extremely difficult.
This could perhaps explain why the Xuanhuang World suddenly lost contact with all other Cultivation Worlds.
“The once radiant Void Sea has become dark in an instant. Every world, apart from fearing the swallowing of the Immortal Ruins, must also hide themselves and prevent other Cultivation Worlds from noticing.”
“What a scene of despair to even think about.”
Although Li Fan thought so, his heart was not genuinely fearful.
In fact, an untraceable smirk appeared on his face.
With the existence of [Real], finding a way to survive among countless possibilities wouldn’t be a problem for him.
Moreover, since the remains of True Immortals can still maintain their whole bodies in the Immortal Ruins.
It means that falling into the Immortal Ruins, there may not simply be a path to death.
You can’t survive merely because your power is not strong enough.
…
After a long silence, Li Fan raised his head, his gaze passing through the transparent wall of the Medicine King Cauldron, looking straight up at the sky.
“It should be easy to verify whether my guess is right or wrong.”
“I only need to fly out of the Xuanhuang World again and face the [Immortal Ruins] in person.”
“Thousands of years ago, Liu Ruchen navigated the Medicine King Cauldron to fly in the Void for a while, before being attracted by the [Immortal Ruins].”
“Now so much time has passed since then, as soon as I leave the Xuanhuang World and lose the protection of the world, I might immediately fall into the Immortal Ruins without much time to react.”
“Even, as we get closer and closer to the Immortal Ruins, maybe one day we can see the Immortal Ruins and the quietly standing remains of the True Immortals in the sky clearly.”
Li Fan extended his left hand and summoned the control core of the Medicine King Cauldron.
“In the presence of my [Real], this world should make some use.”
“Let’s explore.”
After a while of contemplation, Li Fan finally put away the diamond-shaped crystal.
“I hold full authority over the Medicine King’s true cauldron now, and the fate of the people of the Medicine King Sect dwelling within is but a thought away.”
“Six Unity-Path cultivators and twenty-three God Transformation cultivators are still alive.”
“And an unknown number of Cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and below.”
“Apart from these Cultivators, the greatest gain from this experience is the information about that hidden Secret Realm.”
“The Valley of Eternal Life.”
“The only question is whether it still exists after thousands of years.”
