My Longevity Simulation - Chapter 1467
[Chapter 1446: First Hunt for the True Immortal]
The water droplets penetrated through the curtains, like layers of draperies, dividing the battlefield into pieces.
In the heavy rain, Li Fan saw through the gaps that more than a dozen of the cultivators who seized this critical opportunity to besiege the True Immortal could not withstand the huge rain pressure and were crushed into powder in an instant. Then the powder of the bones, combined with the rain, squirmed and turned into “Rain Man”!
They took advantage of the heavy rain everywhere on the battlefield and attacked Li Fan from all directions in an instant.
Li Fan pretended to be in a state of sudden change, holding an umbrella, his body turned into a beam of light, and he quickly escaped from the encirclement. His speed was even faster than the falling rain!
It is exactly like this: the rainstorm passes through your body without getting a single drop on you.
Escaped to a faraway, temporarily safe place. Li Fan looked at the True Immortal who was still staring at him, sneered, and pointed again: “Shave your head!”
The voice seemed to have a strange magical power, causing everyone present to stiffen slightly and pause in their siege.
The True Immortal’s eyes widened, and he let out another earth-shattering roar.
“Kill you! Kill you! Kill you…”
The resentment is overwhelming and the anger is boiling.
The heavy rain that originally fell evenly everywhere seemed to be attracted by some force. Like a waterspout, it all rushed towards Li Fan.
However, the True Immortal’s revenge could not stop the Dao Network orders that Li Fan had already issued.
The invisible Dao network wavered, instantly crossing the battlefield and descending upon the True Immortal’s body again. It was like countless scissors trimming the True Immortal’s hair and beard at the same time. As the smashed cover was slowly removed, the True Immortal finally revealed his true face.
Even though his face was a little thin, he was still handsome. However, his body was covered with huge scars that were deep enough to see the bones and could not heal. The flesh and blood kept squirming, but there was always an inexplicable force preventing them from growing.
The remaining besieging monks, in unison, directed their spells and magical powers towards the wounds.
The True Immortal screamed in response.
Not far away, Li Fan was already unable to cope with the waterspouts with just an umbrella. Heavy rain fell from all directions, eroding Li Fan’s body and mind. The sound coming from his ears was suppressed by the sound of rain. The vision in front of him was also covered by the dense rain curtain.
Even after putting on a protective raincoat, Li Fan still slowly felt that he was being cut off from the world around him.
Just like the dust in the world, it is gradually washed away by this heavy rain!
“Is this the way of Rain?”
“If I don’t do something, I’m afraid I’ll disappear from this world completely. All traces of my existence will be like mud stains washed away by rain, and will no longer exist.”
“Even though he was restrained by the Dao Net, this True Immortal was still able to unleash such magical powers. It seems that in his prime, he was definitely not a weakling!”
Li Fan was in the rain, feeling the magical power of the Dao up close and gaining a lot of insights.
At the same time, along with all the inspirations that emerged in his mind, another rain was born beside him. The direction of the raindrops falling was completely opposite to that of the True Immortal. As the raindrops collided with each other, the wind and rain around Li Fan suddenly became weaker.
Even if the immortal’s magical powers cannot be completely offset, the protection of a raincoat can ensure safety.
Li Fan continued to feel the rain around him. Looking at the immortal who was losing his composure and facing the siege of cultivators not far away, he suddenly felt alert.
“It’s just taking off the armor and clothes, leaving you naked.”
“Compared to being captured alive by a mortal, this kind of humiliation is not worth mentioning at all. This golden-armored immortal is really too shameless. He is shouting and screaming, and he seems to have completely lost his mind…”
“He doesn’t look like someone who can comprehend such magical powers at all.”
“wrong!”
Li Fan’s heart trembled, and he reacted immediately.
Looking at the field, the golden armor and hair that he had previously shaved off with the “removing armor and shaving hair” technique had disappeared without anyone noticing!
“The gaffe is just a bait, just to attract everyone’s attention. The purpose is to take the opportunity to escape when everyone is not paying attention.”
Li Fan’s thoughts raced, and he was about to connect to the Taoist network here and activate the magical power of [Detention].
But on second thought, this is not a real battlefield for fighting true immortals. It is just a test for the Shuoxinghai Administrative Council to recruit immortal hunters.
With so many people watching, could a mere True Immortal really escape?
“It must be just an extra test. If I point it out, it will definitely attract extra attention from the Governing Council. But if I pretend not to know…”
Li Fan hesitated for only a moment, but still made the special decision to reveal himself.
He shouted in the air: “Everyone be careful, don’t let him sneak away!”
Then he quickly glanced around and chanted solemnly: “Arrest!”
The Dao network revealed in the battlefield was like being blown by a gust of wind. It rustled. The Dao strings interwoven horizontally and vertically became clearer.
A brilliant silver light emanated from the slight tremor. The golden armor and beards and hair that had already fled to the edge of the battlefield were all locked and restrained at once!
Buzz!
The Dao string was shaking constantly, as if the immortal was struggling fiercely.
At this moment, all the cultivators on the battlefield just woke up from their dreams. Some continued to attack the body of the True Immortal, while others surrounded the golden armor and beards.
The battle situation was clear, and the True Immortal had completely lost the chance to turn the tables. He was about to die in front of this group of ants…
A ray of light flashed, and the dying immortal disappeared in front of everyone.
It’s not that he still escaped, but the second test has ended.
Li Fan felt the strange looks from the monks around him from time to time, but he just smiled in response.
“The third test…”
“born!”
The cold voice had not yet ended, and the Dao net that had been acting as a background suddenly covered his head. It was like the sky was falling, and the Dao string stretched across like a huge rock wall.
In this sudden disaster, many monks died on the spot. It seemed that they were not teleported away before dying, but really died!
The Dao network that they could rely on turned into a weapon for committing crimes. The monks who participated in the test could only rely on their own abilities to avoid this inexplicable disaster.
but……
The Shuoxinghai monks, especially those who came to participate in the Immortal Hunting Selection, had almost all their cultivation strength in Dao Yuan symbols and Dao Network commands. Without the blessing of the Dao Network, the means they could use were pitifully few.
How could they survive under such a devastating disaster?
Except for the best of the major forces, the rest of the people died on the spot in a short period of time.
The remaining people were just struggling in the face of the catastrophic disaster of the Dao Network. As the Dao Network collapsed more and more seriously, there were fewer and fewer places for them to hide.
It seemed that everyone was gradually being forced into a desperate situation.
Li Fan relied on his Light Escape Technique to handle the situation with ease. However, looking at the cruel selection situation in front of him, where only 16 people were left, including himself, he couldn’t help but feel doubtful.
“The previous Immortal Hunting Test was not this strict. Could it be that something big happened in the Shuoxing Sea recently?”
The severity of this test had obviously exceeded the expectations of everyone present. Their faces were no longer calm as before, but were filled with uncontrollable panic.
Use all means to fight for survival in this apocalyptic scenario.
“ah!”
Another person was crushed to death by the falling Taoist string.
Right in front of Li Fan, his soul was annihilated, and turned into a point of light, merging into the Dao network.
However, it was just this one glance that allowed Li Fan to discover the clue.
Li Fan had witnessed countless deaths of living beings. However, the “death” that happened at this moment seemed to be different from the true death of a cultivator.
With a thought in his mind, Li Fan understood what was going on.
“So that’s how it is. This test looks like a test for candidates, but it’s actually a test of death. Those who can survive the collapse of the Dao Network without borrowing the power of the Dao Network must have their own cultivation and attainments at an extraordinary level. The cultivators of Shuo Xinghai have learned everything from the Dao Network since they were young. It is almost impossible for them to complete the test…”
“If anyone can hold out to the end, I’m afraid they are the criminals lurking in the outer realm!”
“If I die, I will pass the test. If I survive to the end, I will probably be arrested and tortured.”
As Li Fan pondered, he already understood the beauty of this test.
“Of course, if they died too quickly, it would still not work. The first group of people should have really died. However, when the disaster came, they had no ability to react at all. They deserved to die. The only thing is that the timing of death is neither too early nor too late. Only then can they be selected.” Li Fan tried to figure out the meaning of the test from the perspective of the question setter, not the test taker. Naturally, he quickly understood the truth.
So slowly, he pretended to be incapable and fell into a precarious situation. It must be said that even if one could guess the truth of this test, it would be difficult for ordinary people to give up resistance and calmly face death when facing the collapsing strings of the Dao Network.
There is great terror between life and death.
The scene of this crushing network can arouse the instinctive resistance for survival in people’s hearts.
Even for a person like Li Fan who has been walking on the edge of life and death for many years and has escaped death countless times, when he realized that the silver-white string of the Dao Net was about to press down on him, he still almost couldn’t help but break free and escape from its falling range.
Fortunately, he managed to hold it in.
Let the Dao string crush you to pieces.
The sight was suddenly filled with endless silver light.
Li Fan seemed to have lost consciousness.
Without knowing it, Li Fan vaguely felt that there seemed to be a huge thought sweeping through his mind.
Instinctively alert, Li Fan’s mind was completely calm, returning to an infinite tranquility. In an instant, relying on the micro-dao network hidden in his own divine consciousness, he conveniently placed Ma Tiande’s life memories on the surface.
The micro-Dao network and the Dao network are essentially the imprints of the Dao, and there is no difference. At this moment, it is perfectly integrated, and even the huge thought did not notice it after a slight gaze.
The sense of urgency of being stared at by the terrifying monster in the shadows disappeared, and Li Fan “resurrected from the dead”, regaining his body and consciousness.
At this moment, it was no longer the previous test space, but a circular enclave floating in the void. Outside the enclave, there were many figures standing. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but they were all staring at the remaining participants in the field, pointing and talking, laughing. But there was no malice.
Li Fan glanced around.
I found that the other survivors seemed to have not yet recovered and looked a little confused.
From time to time, human figures flashed and then appeared in the circular enclave.
After half a cup of tea, when all the people had arrived, the announcement sounded again. But this time, it was not as cold and serious as before.
But with a little bit of gentleness.
“One last try, fight!”
Li Fan understood in his heart: “I am afraid that after reaching here, the test is completed. The so-called duel is more like determining the ranking.”
It has to be said that those who can survive to this round are definitely among the geniuses of Shuoxinghai.
Although he had not yet recovered, when he heard the order, he instinctively launched a surprise attack on the “enemy” around him.
Li Fan was naturally attacked as well.
His body was as fast as lightning and he dodged all attacks easily.
At the same time, he shouted angrily, “Take off your armor!”
All the monks who were targeting Li Fan froze slightly and retreated violently at the same time.
Everyone present was smart, and they all understood that this final test was just a formality. During the battle, it was okay to lose.
Those who were watching the battle were obviously colleagues of Xianshou. If someone took off his clothes and left him naked, how would he get along with them in the future?
Therefore, under the threat of “disarming”, everyone tacitly did not choose Li Fan as their opponent. They just shot some sneak attacks from time to time, but Li Fan easily dodged them all.
This fight ends here.
It didn’t take long before it became clear.
A light curtain descended above the circular enclave, listing the names of all the people in the field.
From top to bottom, there are twenty-eight people in total.
The overall ranking is based on the performance in the four tests.
Ma Tiande’s name ranks fifth.
“The score should have been raised during the second test, when the operation to capture the True Immortal was conducted.”
Li Fan looked at the person ranked first on the list. Most of the people in the field focused their attention on him.
It was the cultivator who had previously used his magical power of wind to blow back the rain of true immortals.
His surname is Dao and his given name is Yuan.
He had a slender figure and deep eyes. Facing the crowd, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he smiled and bowed.
Recalling the information he had read before, Li Fan remembered this person’s origin.
From Shuoxing Sea, Wandao Palace.
Since Wandao Palace dares to use Tao as its name, it naturally has the confidence.
They were originally a group of surviving forces from other destroyed star seas, and they managed to gain a foothold despite being coveted by many parties.
It is said that he also made outstanding contributions to the establishment of the Dao Network. Now he is comparable to the Sword Domain and Dao Island.
“Now that you have joined the Immortal Hunt, you must obey my orders from now on.”
“Anyone who disobeys orders will be executed without mercy.”
“Next, it is the first task you need to face.”
Everyone present had a subtle look on their face when they heard this.
I didn’t expect that after joining the Immortal Hunters, I would have to carry out missions before receiving any training.
“Half a day ago, a True Immortal was attracted by the [Immortal Bait] we set up, crossed the Oblivion Land, and entered the area covered by the Dao Network.”
“It’s not far from Shuoxing Sea.”
“This True Immortal was seriously injured, and the path he cultivated was Yi. He is just right to serve as a training hand for your first hunt…”
A figure walked out from the audience outside the circular enclave.
Although he was short, he was full of lean muscles. He was wearing a blood-red short coat and carrying a black stone pillar on his shoulders. He looked very strange.
“I hope you will be successful in your first hunt!” The man in blood-stained clothes grinned and patted the stone pillar on his shoulder.
