My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1689 - 1398: Unity-Path Proves Half Immortal (7k)_3

"...Fortunately."

"If it weren’t for this, the shadow remnants of the First Great Heavenly Sovereign’s instincts might have brought me endless trouble."

Li Fan secretly felt relieved.

Within the Xuanhuang World, supported by the four limbs of the Tian Beast, and with eight Great Heavenly Sovereigns linking the Star Sea to provide unceasing aid through the Power of Infinity.

The Xuanhuang World, once teetering on the brink of collapse, finally managed to stabilize amidst the extreme turbulence of the shift between Immortal and Mortal.

In the vortex where the Great Dao manifested, the previously dense flashes of purple thunderstorm began to reduce their frequency.

The trembling within the Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth also gradually eased.

Empowered by the Power of Heaven and Earth, Li Fan could clearly see with his mortal eyes.

Though the Xuanhuang World seemed unchanged on the surface, it was being repeatedly retouched by some mysterious and unknown force, layer upon layer. While things appeared unchanged, their very essence grew sturdier, livelier, closer to their origin.

A sense of joy sprouted within Li Fan’s heart.

He realized they had persevered through the crucial stage, and now was the moment for transformation and ascension.

"But, now is not the time for an early celebration."

Li Fan stood quietly, continuing to wait for the right moment.

Until the vortex in the sky began to contract. As the Great Dao evolution of the shift between Immortal and Mortal neared its conclusion.

Li Fan moved at last: "I ask all Great Heavenly Sovereigns, mend the heavens!"

His expression sincere, his intention conveyed.

The Force of the Uniform Star Sea, which helped the Xuanhuang World overcome its crisis, meanwhile saw the ancestral shadows of numerous Great Heavenly Sovereigns transform into entities resembling Star Spirits.

In the past, the Xuanhuang World dwelled within the Star Sea, its Great Heavenly Sovereigns reigning supreme.

But now with the Xuanhuang World ascending and transforming into the Xuanhuang Immortal Domain—

How could the Great Sovereigns of the Immortal Domain be confined to the Star Sea?

...

Li Fan’s conveyed intention was unequivocal.

It also genuinely aligned with the interests of the Xuanhuang World.

The Xuanhuang Realm Celestial Way, which had recovered from its near demise and now looked hopeful for attaining Immortal Domain enlightenment, cooperated with Li Fan, issuing the command.

The eight Great Heavenly Sovereigns, except for Nameless, were originally formed from the seals of this world.

Thus, resistance was negligible as their indistinct forms gradually dissolved.

They vanished into the Infinite Star Sea Power.

Although Star Spirits are undying, when the vessels they depend on cease to exist, they too dissipate within Heaven and Earth.

This was not merely the cessation of a summoning; rather, it signified the Xuanhuang World’s decisive erasure of the primordial seals left by several Great Heavenly Sovereigns in the world.

This meant that, from this day forth, the Xuanhuang World would no longer be able to summon the shadows of Great Heavenly Sovereigns.

As the Star Spirits disintegrated, the channel connecting to the Infinite Starry Sea Power gradually closed.

However, the enormous consumption of the shift between Immortal and Mortal also began to rapidly decrease.

With Qiu Shui supporting it, that was more than sufficient.

After sending away the seven most threatening shadows of the Great Heavenly Sovereigns, Li Fan turned his attention to the final one—Nameless.

The Nameless Great Heavenly Sovereign, bereft of consciousness, merely adhered to the natural flow of the Heavenly Dao.

Now, at the moment of making the correct decision, Nameless first established the succeeding Great Sovereign’s trial for succession.

Then, the Nameless Flame suddenly erupted from within him, blazing intensely.

Just like the previous Great Sovereign Su Bai, he chose to perish by self-immolation.

When the flames consuming the Nameless Great Heavenly Sovereign utterly devoured him and ultimately vanished—

With eight Great Heavenly Sovereigns sacrificed, the Xuanhuang World’s ascension and the road to its pinnacle finally reached its final moment.

It was about to cross that boundary between Immortal and Mortal.

Li Fan’s heart suddenly felt a profound realization.

At the instant of Xuanhuang World’s ascension into the Immortal Domain, all the past contracts it had signed with Li Fan would turn to dust—

No longer valid.

Agreements and contracts might exist between mortal beings, but between Immortal and Mortal—how could such bonds restrain them?

With blessings of enlightenment stirring his heart, relying on the last moment of mastering the Power of Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth, Li Fan summoned the Essence of Heaven and Earth and Mo Sha.

The next instant...

The vortex in the firmament completely healed.

Amidst a thunderous roar, the Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth resumed its cyclical motion.

Streaks of seven-colored radiance began to appear everywhere in Heaven and Earth, leaping and shimmering perpetually across the realm.

The Xuanhuang World, previously compressed to the extreme, began its rebound and transformation.

It visibly grew at an astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye, the Xuanhuang World became vast once more.

Within mere moments, it expanded millions of miles outward, so much so that Li Fan’s vision could no longer discern the colossal pillars reaching toward the heavens in the corners of the domain with a few breaths.

...

Li Fan took in every detail of the astonishing transformations in the Xuanhuang World.

Relying on the last trace of residual strength from the Xuanhuang World, he vaguely sensed an immensely distant Outer World.

The Hungry Immortal in the Immortal Ruins seemed to have awakened.

Yet she stared cautiously at the Immortal Domain that had suddenly appeared before her, choosing not to emerge rashly. From afar, she observed silently.

Meanwhile, within Yuandao State of the Xuanhuang World, the Grand Master and the shadow remained trapped in slumber.

Strangely enough, the shadow, which had remained silent for ages without issuing the Law Transmission, began to chant of its own accord.

The slumbering Grand Master furrowed his brows tightly, his lips parted uneasily, echoing the chant of the Law Transmission.

The two entities met but did not overlap; instead, they canceled each other out.

In the end, this culminated in total silence.

Beyond the realms of the Xuanhuang World, the Celestial Doctor and the Lawbringer had just broken through the High Wall erected by Li Fan.

Standing there, stunned, gazing at the Xuanhuang World which inexplicably appeared—familiar yet strange—they fell into a momentary daze.

To Li Fan’s surprise, the face of the Celestial Dharma Bearer began to shift and flicker—as if something was struggling to emerge from beneath the surface.

...

Within the Xuanhuang World, as it officially ascended into the Immortal Domain, countless transformations unfolded one after another.
