My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 701: Chapter 667: Decapitating Fortune Enters the Pivot

Every inch forward, the attraction felt from the surrounding Qi Luck was even stronger.

The World’s Heavenly Fate stored within the Feather of the Mystic Bird started flowing out crazily like water gushing through an open dam, causing Li Fan’s face to change slightly.

This stone statue’s terrifying absorption ability exceeded his expectations.

If an ordinary cultivator were here, I fear their entire Qi Luck would be drained in an instant, causing them to explode on the spot under the onslaught of bad luck!

Perhaps even individuals with great Qi Luck like Xu Ke couldn’t withstand it for long.

However…

It’s true that the Qi Luck of an individual cannot last for long in this Absorption Domain. But the World’s Fate is a different matter.

After all, there is a limit to the rate at which this stone statue absorbs Qi Luck. Even though Li Fan was quickly flying aside the statue, the Qi Luck lost each moment and compared to the massive Qi Luck stored in the Feather of the Mystic Bird was insignificant, like a drop in the ocean.

Li Fan estimated that even if he stayed here and let the statue absorb Qi Luck, it would take half a day to be completely drained!

“This is what they mean when they say, ‘Divine Techniques cannot defy the Heavenly Number’!”

Once again, using the Feather of the Mystic Bird, he formed a protective domain around himself with the World’s Heavenly Fate. After ensuring his safety, Li Fan calmly observed the stone statue of Han Yi.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The face was filled with horror, eyes filled with despair; it seemed so lifelike.

It was as if time had frozen on him, paused at the moment when he received a fatal injury.

“Han Yi must have ended up like this after he encountered the Fisherman. Was it the Fisherman’s means, or the effect of the Heavenly Fate Sutra?”

Li Fan didn’t act rashly but observed carefully.

“Seems alive yet not alive, dead yet not dead…”

“Strange!”

Previously, through the Mistwater Mirage Technique, Li Fan had gained a rough understanding of the “Fate Scripture of Heaven”. However, it didn’t seem to include this kind of bizarre transformation.

If there is anything similar, it should be a divine technique called [Fate Severing and Returning to the Core].

When facing a life-and-death crisis, one could sever their own Qi Luck. Cutting off all connections with the world and entering the state of returning to the core that is devoid of emptiness and self.

In this state, although one’s physical existence and thoughts completely stop, it’s as if they had teleported into the void and become isolated from the world, unnoticeable to others.

The state of returning to the core would last for several months or even years. It would slowly return to normal only after the external crisis had completely passed.

This technique could have severe side effects, but its life-saving ability is extremely high.

“Perhaps the interaction between the Fisherman’s attack and the [Fate Severing and Returning to the Core] resulted in the creation of this stone statue.”

After careful observation for a long time, Li Fan seemed to have gained some understanding.

“Even though Han Yi displayed this life-saving divine technique, the gap in strength between him and the Fisherman was too large. He wasn’t able to enter the state of returning to the core in time, and was hit by the Fisherman’s attack.”

“Hmm…”

“The Fisherman may not have intended to kill Han Yi, only wanted to search his Spirit Consciousness for clues about the Sky Slaughter Sword. But even so, Han Yi could not bear it. He was directly involved and turned into his current stone statue form.”

“The so-called severing of luck means returning one’s own Qi Luck to the heavens and is called abandoning fortune. But now, it has changed to absorbing luck from the outside world.”

“Is this due to the Fisherman’s attack?”

With thoughts whirling in his Spirit Consciousness, a serious look appeared on Li Fan’s face.

Soon after, Li Fan came back from his thoughts, looked at Han Yi, his eyes cold.

“If it were merely the state of Returning to the Core, there would eventually come a day of awakening. But given your current state due to the Fisherman’s involvement, you will never be able to return to normal.”

“Living is worse than dying. Let me help you.”

As he said that, Li Fan pointed a finger and launched the Violet Sky Soul Viewing Art at Han Yi.

At this moment, Han Yi’s thoughts were at a complete standstill. Thus, Li Fan wasn’t hindered in any way, and was able to freely roam Han Yi’s Spirit Consciousness. All of Han Yi’s secrets, even the darkest side of his heart, were completely exposed in front of Li Fan.

One could even say that Li Fan knew Han Yi better than Han Yi knew himself at this moment.

After completely seizing all the thoughts in Han Yi’s brain, Li Fan flicked his finger and released a black Sword Light.

It quickly pierced through the stone statue’s chest.

In an instant, the stone statue disintegrated into countless tiny particles and scattered in the heaven and earth.

At the same time, the Absorption Domain surrounding the statue vanished.

Not only was there no anomaly of cultivators falling in the sky above, but an invisible storm was born in the sky. The Qi Luck absorbed by Han Yi during this time also returned to the heaven and earth with Han Yi’s disappearance.

Li Fan would certainly not give up such a rare opportunity. He used the Feather of the Mystic Bird and swallowed all of the unowned Qi Luck before it had completely scattered. Anticipating the response of others to the anomaly, he quietly left.

Back in the Valley of Eternal Life, he did not disturb Liu San and the others who were still busy.

Li Fan entered the Sect Leader’s cultivation secret room and placed the brown jade bottle containing Xu Ke’s Blood Essence, as well as the materials for creating the doppelgänger in front of him.

Just as he was about to start, he suddenly felt a sense of unease in his heart.

“I am currently at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, the realm of the doppelgänger I refine will be limited to Golden Core Perfection. If I want the doppelgänger to cultivate Han Yi’s ‘Fate Scripture of Heaven’, if I refine the doppelgänger first and then let it cultivate and break through…”

“It’s possible that the bottleneck of the Heavenly Calamity might be even more stubborn than mine, therefore delaying time unnecessarily. It would be more efficient if I advanced to the Mid Nascent Soul Stage first.”

After pondering, Li Fan temporarily packed up the materials and went to the sky of the Beast Type World.

“I used the Five Elements Cave Heaven to achieve the Nascent Soul, the fastest way to break through is to understand the principles of the Five Elements in large quantities.”

“In the Xuan Huang World, I would need to search for these principles with effort. But in this Beast Type World…”

“The rotation of Heaven and Earth and the flow of the Five Elements are all within my thoughts!”

“Even though the rank of this small world is lower and we should learn from Little Black’s previous lessons and avoid getting too involved with it. But for it to assist me in quickly reaching the Nascent Soul Mid Stage, it is enough.”

Li Fan closed his eyes. In the blink of an eye, an inverted funnel seemed to appear in the sky. The Power of Five Elements that maintained the operation of the Beast Type World were slowly attracted and entered it. As the powers of the Five Elements collided with each other, they occasionally resulted in a loud noise. The sky became colorful which was a spectacular sight.

Liu San and Fang Zaiji looked up and saw Li Fan standing quietly in the clouds, and nodded slightly.

“The momentum of the Young Master’s cultivation is truly extraordinary. It’s quite similar to the former Master!” Liu San said with some relief.

“Hehe, I think even Liu Ruchen is not his match!” Fang Zaiji, on the other hand, did not give Liu San any face and said something off-key.

Liu San’s face froze, but unlike his usual self, he did not retort.

“A blue out of the green is a good thing. Otherwise, our Medicine King Sect would repeat the same mistakes, wouldn’t we?”

“It is a good thing!” Liu San repeated.

After giving orders to the other disciples not to disturb Li Fan’s cultivation, the two of them worked together to set up a protective array around Li Fan, then felt relieved.

Time passed and Li Fan’s heart was immersed in cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, two years had passed.
