My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 1873: Chapter 1491: Hai Zhen’s Limit

Chaos Wu Ming’s decision drew laughter from the various immortals of the Sea of the Northern Stars. However, since Chaos had always acted cautiously, the immortals were already accustomed to it.

The man in white gently stroked the black cat on his shoulder, teasingly said, “Don’t worry, Brother Dao Chaos. After we capture that trickster Hidden Emperor, the Primordial Immortal Realm’s Sky Dome will surely have a seat for you. After all, Brother Dao, though you have no contributions, your efforts cannot be ignored.”

The rest of the immortals echoed his remarks.

Chaos, however, was not offended.

[Benevolent Transformation] might have spoken harshly, but since he had openly stated it, he would never go back on his word. Thus, Chaos had everything to gain and nothing to lose.

If he indeed made a mistake and the Hidden Emperor was actually weak, with past merits, he could still secure a position in the Primordial Immortal Realm.

But if they were gravely mistaken…

Chaos Wu Ming began to calculate secretly within his Spirit Consciousness.

“It’s a pity that [Chu] is not here now; otherwise, I wouldn’t be so tangled about it.” Chaos glanced at the black cat on Benevolent Transformation’s shoulder, sneering silently.

…

Li Fan was not yet aware of everything happening within the Sea of the Northern Stars.

Since the day he appointed the five Heavenly Emperors of the Primordial Immortal Realm, a new insight had unexpectedly surged within him.

Deciding to wait patiently, like a long fishing line, he left Chaos Wu Ming and others behind and focused on researching this change thoroughly.

The inspiration originated from the [Heaven Seating Technique].

This passive way of benefit, since Li Fan ascended to Half Immortal, he thought it might possibly lose effectiveness. The facts seemed to prove him right, as no matter how he assisted cultivators, directly or indirectly, in their cultivation base growth, he received no feedback at all.

Until this time’s appointment.

Once the five Heavenly Emperors were established, the Primordial Immortal Realm stabilized from its creation. It was no longer a mere imitation of the Immortal World’s mainland but truly became an Immortal Domain.

Standing tall upon [Upper Mountain].

The one who achieved all this, Li Fan, at the moment of success, felt a sudden enlightenment. As if a stepping stone appeared beneath his feet, he ascended slightly higher. The scene before him instantly transformed, revealing myriad phenomena.

“It seems the Heaven Seating Technique hasn’t failed; rather, after affirming the Immortal Road, ordinary feedback can no longer propel my progress. Only from nothing to an entire Immortal Domain can it barely be useful.” Li Fan realized with clarity.

Despite no actual change in strength, due to that slight “elevation,” Li Fan felt differently compared to before when he observed the Phantom of the Guarded Hill, the Hungry Immortal, Infinite Sky Pillar, etc.

“High and mighty, skillful beyond compare.” Eight words involuntarily appeared within Li Fan’s Spirit Consciousness.

After briefly contemplating, Li Fan realized the source of this feeling.

Whether it was the Phantom of the Guarded Hill or various Heavenly Pillars, Li Fan had closed himself off to comprehend them for over a hundred years. Though not entirely mastered, they were quite familiar to him.

And the Heaven Seating Technique’s feedback was based on this foundational familiarity. With the creation’s feedback of the Primordial Immortal Realm, it directly doubled this foundational familiarity.

Sparing Li Fan a hundred years of time.

Li Fan’s eyes narrowed involuntarily.

Upon thorough examination of himself, Li Fan discovered that not only in terms of the Phantom of the Guarded Hill and Heavenly Pillars cognition—everything he had learned and known also doubled in familiarity with this slight “ascent.”

Even encompassing Mo Sha’s Net of the Myriad Phenomena.

This terrifying rate of progress left Li Fan himself incredulous. After triple checking, he had to accept this fact.

“One inch higher on Upper Mountain, and it’s heaven-shattering and earth-turning!”

“The increase in strength isn’t evenly gained with height ascent but rather innumerable folds increase with higher standing!”

“No wonder True Immortals and Namesless Immortals, compared to those standing at the Immortal World’s pinnacle like Lord Guardian Hill, Four Saint Lords, vary so vastly.”

“Even surpassing the disparity between Lower Realm cultivators.”

“Give me billions of Integration Cultivators; with sheer numbers, I can encircle and kill Longevity, even Celestial Doctor, those Supreme strongmen. But…”

“Yet billions of True Immortals together perhaps aren’t a match for any one of the Four Saint Lords.”

Li Fan reflected upon his past self before this enlightenment.

If one doesn’t count external force, just measuring his ability to manifest his strength now, Li Fan could easily subdue himself before establishing the Primordial Immortal Realm.

“[Upper Mountain]’s unique nature leads to vast gaps between True Immortals and True Immortals, Nameless and Nameless in the same great realm.”

“Since theoretically speaking, so-called Transcendent Strongmen still belong to the Namesless Immortal category.”

One must ascend personally to know the mountain’s full height.

This was Li Fan’s first self-strength improvement since becoming a Half Immortal, now able to glimpse the majestic and unfathomable corner of [Upper Mountain].

“Truly unimaginable, how mighty the Saint Lord towering above various immortals is.”

“And the Infinite Sea along with Upper Mountain itself…” Li Fan couldn’t help but long in his heart.

After a brief reverie, his thoughts returned to reality.

Li Fan looked at this piece of Primordial Immortal Realm he personally created below, faintly sensing that with his incessant use of infinite immortal power for nurturing day and night, it had already become a part of [Mountain and Sea].

Even if he severs the connection between Primordial Immortal Realm and Infinite Sea, it wouldn’t change this fact.

“This is the [price], isn’t it.”

“Everything in The Mortal World, and Infinite Sea, Upper Mountain, inherently aren’t the same rank of existence. While it’s possible to cleverly borrow strength, the consequence is erosion by the Mountain and Sea power, becoming part of the Mountain Sea.”
