My Longevity Simulation - Chapter 1547

[Chapter 1526: Painting Hidden Boat]
“The sky and the earth are like trees, and life is spent day and night.”
“There is no reincarnation of life and death, only immortality remains…”
Li Fan slowly recited the lines that belonged to Ruo Mu, while flipping through his memory. Ruo Mu Ben Mu, on the other hand, hid in the corner, trembling, allowing Li Fan to spy on him.
From the birth of Xuanhuang Realm to the present, it is definitely an extremely long period of time. But Li Fan, reviewing it from a bystander’s perspective, only saw a dozen breaths of time.
“This can also be called immortality…” Li Fan shook his head slightly.
Perhaps because he was in a near-death state for a long time, Ruomu’s memory was not particularly clear. There were even large sections missing in some key places. However, it was enough for Li Fan to have a general understanding of the Xuanhuang Realm.
From Ruomu’s perspective, the Xuanhuang Realm can be roughly divided into three periods.
The first part is from the beginning of Xuanhuang to the time when many sects of immortal cultivation were established. At this time, Xuanhuang Realm was still under the control of the immortal world. Ruomu even retained the memory of the time when the true immortal used himself to balance and adjust the life span of all living things in the world.
The second part is from the destruction of the Immortal Realm to the sudden destruction of the Xuantian Sect. During this period, King Xuantian replaced the True Immortal and became the helmsman of the Xuanhuang Realm. The various transformation marks on Ruomu and the Xuanhuang Realm are still left on Ruomu’s body.
The third period is from the time when the ten immortal sects came to power to the present day.
This was also the freest time for Ruomu. The Ten Sects of the Immortal Path, and even the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Law-Chuan Tianzun, claimed that they could also manipulate Ruomu and divide up Ruomu’s longevity fruit. But in fact, they were qualitatively different from the True Immortals and the Mysterious Heavenly King.
Their so-called control was nothing more than picking the fruits after they were ripe. However, if the vitality of the Xuanhuang Realm was insufficient to produce fruits, they would be helpless.
However, the True Immortal and King Xuantian in the past could, through Ruomu, forcibly extract the vitality of all living beings in the Xuanhuang Realm and condense the fruit of immortality.
In short, there is a huge difference between the real manipulator and user of Ruomu.
This is also the reason why the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance did nothing after Ruomu fell ill and his vitality withered. Whether it was the Heavenly Doctor or the Dharma Master, they had all wanted to save Ruomu. The reason they returned in vain was because of the unique creation restriction in Ruomu’s body.
Since it was created by a true immortal, naturally only a true immortal can control it.
What’s more, Ruomu and even the entire Xuanhuang Realm are not just ordinary creations of true immortals.
However, at this moment, after gaining absolute control over Ruomu through the huge vitality in his body, Li Fan, who was obviously just a mortal, felt so familiar with the restrictions on Ruomu.
The theoretical gap between immortals and mortals could not stop him.
As if it was a natural process, relying solely on instinct, Li Fan completed the cracking and intrusion within a few breaths after he became aware of the existence of the restriction.
The heavily guarded immortal restrictions seemed to be completely defenseless in front of the abundant green controlled by Li Fan!
At this moment, Li Fan not only became [Ruo Mu], but also became the master of [Ruo Mu].
The ancient tree that has regained its vitality has an extremely complex pattern at its core.
Although Li Fan seemed to be seeing these for the first time, after a moment of observation, he was able to quickly figure out the meaning of these patterns.
What Li Fan was very concerned about was that it should be the modification mark left by King Xuantian.
After careful consideration, Li Fan had some idea of the reason why King Xuantian had modified Ruomu.
“From the wood, transform some of the vitality and use it independently.”
“Perhaps this is also one of the important reasons why the flow of vitality in the Xuanhuang world is unbalanced and the trees are rapidly withering. But where did this transferred vitality go?”
Li Fan frowned slightly, and his vision suddenly narrowed to look around Ruomu.
Li Fan currently doesn’t have many memories of Xuan Tian Wang. However, whether it’s his own intuitive impression or what he saw in Ruo Mu’s memory, this Xuan Tian Wang is definitely one of the strongest in the history of Xuan Huang Realm.
Even though he has disappeared for many years, Li Fan still dares not be careless.
If the trees are spread all over the dark yellow.
Soon Li Fan followed one of its branches and tracked down the separated life force.
A seemingly ordinary Taoist temple.
In the Taoist temple, there is an old man, a young Taoist boy, and an ordinary pool of water.
The old man has reached Nascent Soul stage, and the young child does not seem to be human.
And finally…
“Um?”
After seeing this scene, Li Fan instinctively felt a sense of crisis. But it didn’t come from the old man and the young boy, but from the pool of water?
The image of countless rare treasures shining like stars in the pool water suddenly appeared in Li Fan’s mind.
At the end of the picture, there is a horrifying scene where a cat leaps up and swallows all the rare treasures in the world into its stomach.
“Fishing Pond…”
“cat?”
Li Fan could not help but stop moving forward. Even though this body was just a branch of the Ruomu tree that he controlled.
He did not enter the Taoist temple, but just watched from afar to see where the vitality that was drawn out of the Zi Ruo tree went.
After careful identification, Li Fan discovered that the vitality was not directed to the Taoist temple or the fishing pond, but to the nearby mountains and forests.
It’s just that the two are very close, and the fishing pond is too conspicuous, which caused Li Fan to misjudge when he saw it for the first time.
Putting the fishing pond aside for the moment, Li Fan tracked to the place where Ruomu was lingering with vitality.
After stepping into this underground space, he couldn’t help but be surprised.
“This method of condensation…”
“Although a large amount of vitality is gathering, it is not overflowing at all. If I were not Ruomu at this moment, I would not be able to sense the vitality gathering below even if I were standing on the ground!”
“It’s worth learning from.”
Li Fan’s biggest problem now is the uncontrolled overflow of vitality. The vitality contained in his body is too huge. Even if only one billionth of the aura around him overflows, it is undoubtedly an absolute treasure to the outsiders. This situation becomes more and more serious as Li Fan stimulates the potential of vitality.
At this moment, I found the solution here and couldn’t help but observe it carefully.
It seemed that even with his lost memories, he only had a vague understanding of the layout here. This time Li Fan was really surprised.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation since he started a new round of simulations.
“Although I can’t solve the problem, I can lock in the usefulness of vitality.”
Li Fan glanced around.
There is a village buried in the underground space. Apart from some buildings, there are no other living things in the village. The guided Ruomu vitality maintains the original state of the village.
On the other hand, everyone gathered in one of the houses in the village.
“From the time when King Xuantian was transformed to now, the vitality that has been continuously extracted and introduced has added up to an extremely large number. Although it is still not even one-tenth of what I have, it is far from the scale that is being displayed now.”
Li Fan’s heart tightened, and after thinking for a moment, he finally slowly approached.
He stood outside the house for a moment, then finally pushed the door open and walked in.
Following the flow of vitality, we crossed the courtyard and came to a room in the center of the back house.
Li Fan stopped walking instantly.
Because he looked through the door and window and vaguely saw a figure standing inside!
However, through Ruomu’s observation, Li Fan finally determined that the figure did not seem to be a living creature in the ordinary sense.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Fan decided to find out what was going on.
The facts were exactly as he had guessed.
The so-called “figure” in the room is just a portrait.
“Why does this portrait need vitality to nourish it?” A trace of doubt flashed through Li Fan’s mind.
The picture depicts a group of young children playing together in the mountains. Among the children, there is a boy and a girl, holding hands. The moment Li Fan saw it, he felt a sense of familiarity.
“This is King Xuantian. And…”
It seemed as if another switch was triggered. The image that flashed through Li Fan’s mind told him that the person next to King Xuantian should be his childhood sweetheart.
Li Fan pressed his temples to recover from the sudden influx of information that had just caused his brain to explode. Then he continued to observe the scroll in front of him.
Because of the infusion of a large amount of vitality, the children in the painting seem to have come alive.
Especially Xuan Tian Wang, his eyes were looking forward. It seemed that he was looking outside the painting!
In an instant, Li Fan almost had an illusion. The young Xuan Tian Wang seemed to be looking at him!
But after further study, Li Fan found that the young Xuan Tian Wang was not the most special thing in this painting.
In an inconspicuous corner of the picture, outside a house in the village, lay a ragged man with long hair.
The man’s face could not be seen clearly because of his hair and beard.
However, the man looked at the group of children playing outside the village from a distance with a strange expression.
Between the man’s chest was a palm-sized wooden boat.
Looking closely, you can vaguely see the faces of the group of children outside the village through the window of the wooden boat!
“What does this mean?”
This painting seemed to have a special magic, and it attracted Li Fan’s attention unconsciously.
No matter what was on his mind, he would eventually look at the wooden boat.
The wooden boat seemed to have experienced the baptism of time and became scarred and dilapidated. It seemed that it would completely break apart in the next moment.
However, it seems that due to the nourishment of infinite vitality, it can still barely maintain its original shape.
As Li Fan watched, he suddenly saw his own shadow through the window of the boat. Just as he couldn’t help but reach out his hand and wanted to touch the boat.
He met his reflection’s eyes.
The memory that had disappeared suddenly revived a little, causing Li Fan to withdraw his hand as if he had received an electric shock.
“King Xuantian seems to be the luckiest person in the history of Xuanhuang Realm. He can always turn danger into fortune and turn disaster into blessing. He can even escape the catastrophe of the destruction of the immortal world and the death of countless immortals…”
Li Fan focused his attention on the wooden boat in the painting: “Could this be the legendary [Reverse Boat]?”
“Three treasures of seclusion…”
Li Fan forcibly called upon his vitality to repair his serious injuries in an effort to recall more.
“However, this is clearly a treasure that was created after the destruction of the Immortal Realm. How could it appear in the hands of King Xuantian before the great catastrophe arrived?”
“Going in reverse… Could it be that it really succeeded?”
Li Fan couldn’t help but turn his gaze to the sloppy man holding the wooden boat.
After all, his current body is not enough to support Li Fan to recover all his memories.
Li Fan temporarily withdrew from his memories.
Looking at the scroll in front of him, he showed a rare look of hesitation.
This painting has been nourished by the vitality of Ruomu for thousands of years.
At this moment, Li Fan has become the new Ruomu. Theoretically speaking, he is fully capable of using his vitality to take the scroll away.
But what we need to face next is the unknown danger hidden in the painting.
Li Fan did not take any action for the time being, and began to think about the disappearance of King Xuantian.
“I seem to have done some research on this matter before. King Xuantian should have disappeared in the fishing pond in the end.”
“As to whether it disappeared actively or passively…”
“So this scroll was left behind intentionally. Was it for her childhood sweetheart? But he didn’t mention this in his message. Obviously, he didn’t want her to know.”
“If the scroll really contains the boat that goes against the flow, then why would King Xuantian abandon such a treasure that can change one’s fate?”
…
Obviously, these questions cannot be answered just by thinking about them.
In the Great Xuan Small World, in the Grand Master’s Mansion in Xuanjing City, Li Fan tried it himself to ensure that he could return to the beginning of the simulation at any time. After feeling the huge vitality in himself, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and Li Fan made up his mind.
“If you are timid, you will never achieve anything great. It’s just a simulation. Even if you are seriously injured, it will only mean you lose your memory again and have to drink a few bowls of magic water.”
“Rather than leaving this mystery as a scourge, it is better to find out its true nature now!”
“Since vitality is useful to it, give it to it!”
…
In the Xuanhuang Realm, Li Fan also took action.
The surprise and doubt in his eyes disappeared, and he slowly exhaled a breath of immortality and rushed towards the scroll in front of him.
This breath of longevity was condensed from his practice in this life.
Compared with the vitality given to Kou Hong, Dao Xuanzi, and even used to take over Ruomu’s body, it is far beyond several orders of magnitude.
Even Li Fan himself turned pale after releasing this condensed energy.
However, the effect is immediate.
Li Fan stared closely at the changes ahead.
Faced with the sudden arrival of vitality, the painting scroll also accepts all that comes. No matter how much vitality there is, it will accept it all.
Hints of green appear in the painting.
The picture also underwent corresponding changes due to the influx of vitality.
On the earth, green grass and flowers grow everywhere. In the sky, colorful auspicious clouds roll down.
The wooden boat, which was originally close to decay and damage, became brand new at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The changes in the wooden boat caught the attention of the slovenly man who was in charge of it.
His hair and beard fluttered, revealing his hidden true face.
The man suddenly raised his head and looked outside the painting.
Li Fan looked into each other’s eyes.
Then Li Fan felt dizzy and his consciousness was instantly sucked into the painting!
Before he could struggle, he felt a hand pressing on his shoulder.
“The Path to Immortality?”
The slovenly man opposite sounded extremely surprised.
