My Longevity Simulation - Chapter 1548

[Chapter 1527: Emperor Yin builds a fairy boat]

Although Li Fan was shocked at being controlled by someone in an instant, he did not show any weakness.

He also asked, “A boat going against the flow?”

His eyes were fixed on the wooden boat that looked brand new on the sloppy man’s shoulder.

The sloppy man smiled silently and let Li Fan go.

“As expected of you, Master Shouqiu’s disciple. Your knowledge is truly extraordinary.” He had no intention of concealing anything and openly acknowledged the identity of the treasure in his hand.

“Mr. Shouqiu…” Li Fan silently recited this familiar yet unfamiliar name in his mind, and many images flashed through his mind. At the same time, Li Fan also noticed something unusual about his body.

When I entered this painting and recalled the past, I didn’t know why I felt the tingling sensation in my head. It seemed that I could browse the memories of the past to my heart’s content.

But Li Fan’s intuition told him that if he did this, the outcome would definitely not be good.

The strong sense of contradiction made Li Fan instinctively feel that there was something strange about this place.

Seeing that Li Fan remained silent, the slovenly man did not get angry, but changed the question: “Since you are a disciple of Shouqiu, you should look down on my Nixing Boat. Why did you come here, little brother?”

“I thought I would never see anyone else in this life.” The sloppy man said with a sigh.

Li Fan noticed that although he had allowed a lot of vitality to enter the painting, it seemed that it was all absorbed by the boat. However, the sloppy man who was the owner of the boat did not get any of it. He remained the same as before.

Although he looks middle-aged, he exudes an indescribable deadness.

Li Fan, who has a lot of vitality in his body, is naturally extremely sensitive to vitality.

During this period of silence, he finally became convinced that the slovenly man in front of him was not a real creature, but just a projection.

However, Li Fan did not take it lightly.

After all, the strength that the sloppy man just showed was really terrifying. Just an illusory projection had such an oppressive force. It was hard to imagine what realm the sloppy man was in his prime.

“The Great Way of Immortality, Disciple Shouqiu.”

“Could this be the source of the endless vitality in my body?” Li Fan vaguely recalled more.

Since the other party did not show any particularly obvious hostility, Li Fan planned to press the issue further and test the enemy further.

He said in a deep voice: “Sir, you are generalizing. Disciple Shouqiu, why can’t you covet a treasure like the Nixing Boat? Reversing time, what a great opportunity! It may not be inferior to the Great Way of Immortality!”

Hearing this, the sloppy man looked at Li Fan in surprise.

Then he thought of something and smiled in relief. Then he threw the boat in his arms over.

“Mr. Shouqiu must have been trapped in the [Eternal Silence Realm], so he only taught the orthodox teachings and the flawless disciples. Take a look at this boat going against the current. Is it as magical as you imagined?”

Since the other party dared to throw it, Li Fan dared to catch it.

With the most precious boat in hand, I observed it carefully.

As if sensing the endless vitality in Li Fan’s body, the treasure boat became more and more greedy, like a black hole, trying to grab it. Li Fan did not completely isolate the transmission of vitality, but consciously continued to send out a little vitality. At the same time, with the help of this vitality, he sensed the situation inside the retrograde boat.

He has always been very curious as to why this treasure, which is said to be able to reverse time, needs vitality to maintain its existence just like all living things in the world.

The wooden boat was only the size of a palm, but it seemed as heavy as a mountain. Li Fan also used up all his strength to barely hold it. His mind followed the flowing vitality and entered the interior of the treasure boat.

It was discovered that the condition of the interior of the boat was even worse than its appearance.

Shocking cracks covered every corner of the treasure boat, like horrible scars. Through these cracks, Li Fan vaguely saw countless scenes that did not belong to this time and space.

Li Fan realized that this was not his illusion. These images were not just illusions. If he accidentally fell into these cracks, he might really get lost in the turbulence of time and space.

Avoiding these extremely dangerous cracks, Li Fan focused his mind, trying to lock onto the direction of life in the entire retrograde boat.

Affected by the space-time rifts, his perception of life became confused. It took him a lot of effort to finally figure it out.

“Retrograde, retrograde.”

Li Fan squatted down and gently stroked the deck of the treasure boat with his hand, thinking: “Although it looks like an object, it is actually a living being. Going upstream also consumes its own lifespan. Even under the scouring of the power of time, it consumes thousands of times more. Moreover, in addition to vitality, it seems to consume something else…”

Li Fan narrowed his eyes.

From his perspective, this ship was like an old man who was about to die. Although it tried its best to absorb vitality from the outside world to maintain its survival, it could only barely hang on to its last breath. Moreover, it was hard to say how long this kind of survival could last.

If Li Fan had not come here today and contributed a lot of vitality, who knows one day, this shocking treasure of the immortal family will disappear silently along with this painting.

“How could this be?”

Li Fan couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed.

I thought I had found a treasure that could reverse the passage of time, but I never imagined that this treasure was in a state of near-destruction after being severely overdrawn.

After checking again and again and confirming the fact, Li Fan mentally withdrew from the retrograde boat.

“What do you think? Even if I give you this treasure boat, will you take it? I’m afraid you will drown in the long river of time before you even get back to the target time node…” The sloppy man said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Li Fan did not follow the routine at all and said directly: “Yes. Of course I want it.”

“Even a boat that is about to break represents a chance to survive. No matter how slim the hope of success is, it is the only chance of survival when you are in a desperate situation with no other options.” Li Fan said seriously.

The sloppy man was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his lips slowly disappeared.

After a long silence, he finally said in a faint voice: “What you said is not wrong.”

“If Xuanyuan Hong had this realization at the beginning, he would not have left the Nixing Boat here.”

Li Fan heard a familiar name and immediately followed the other party’s words and asked: “Xuanyuan Hong… is he the Xuantian King in the Xuanhuang Realm? Could it be that his past achievements were due to the help of this Nixing Boat?”

The slovenly man looked nostalgic and shook his head slightly, saying, “In my opinion, the reason why Xuanyuan Hong got to that point was three-tenths of luck and three-tenths of his own hard work. The remaining four points were only half of Nixingzhou. As for the remaining half…”

“The mountain and sea fishing grounds have made an indelible contribution.” The sloppy man’s gaze drifted outside the painting.

“Shanhai Fishery?” Li Fan was stunned at first, and then he realized that the other party was probably talking about the fishing pond.

“But what’s the meaning of naming it after mountains and seas?”

Suddenly, the endless ocean and mountains suddenly jumped into Li Fan’s mind. Along with the strange vision of mountains and seas, there was also endless light and heat. Countless possibilities were melted in the blazing light.

It seems that we are one step closer to fully recovering our memories.

At this critical moment, the sloppy man pressed his palm on Li Fan’s shoulder again.

Pulled Li Fan back to reality from the fantasy of memories.

Only then did Li Fan realize the dangerous situation he was in in reality.

Whether it is the clone in the Xuanhuang Realm or the original body in the Daxuan Small World.

The heads have all exploded.

Even most of his body was gradually evaporating from top to bottom due to the shock brought by the strange mountain and sea phenomenon. Even the “Great Way of Immortality” in his body could not stop this trend of disappearance.

If the sloppy man had not woken him up in time, Li Fan would probably have become a mere phantom in no time.

“Your condition… seems a little wrong?” The sloppy man looked at Li Fan with some doubt.

Li Fan cupped his hands and said, “Senior, you are indeed very insightful. To be honest, I seem to have gone wrong in my cultivation, and most of my past memories have disappeared. I can barely recall some of them, but my body has also suffered a strong backlash. I have struggled all the way from being a mortal to rebuilding myself. I rely entirely on instinct and the help of the longevity path in my body.”

“As for what you said, Senior, Lord Shouqiu…”

“I do have some impressions. But I also remember some vague images.” Li Fan said, showing a lonely figure guarding the hill and looking at the sea in front of the sloppy man.

When the sloppy man saw Mr. Shouqiu, his expression immediately became solemn to show his respect.

Then he observed Li Fan carefully for a while, and then slowly said: “The great way of immortality in your body is indeed controlled by Lord Shouqiu. Since Lord Shouqiu is here, it cannot be fake.”

“But I was fortunate enough to hear Lord Shouqiu explain a little about this Great Road of Mountains and Seas. I don’t know much about the details. I can’t help you much.”

“But don’t worry too much. With the blessing of the Great Dao of Immortality, you will be safe even if this world is destroyed.” There was a hint of envy in the sloppy man’s tone.

Li Fan nodded after hearing this: “Thank you for your guidance, Senior. By the way, I don’t know your name, Senior?”

The slovenly man waved his hand and said, “The names of dead people are just like smoke in the past. Why bother to mention them again?”

Li Fan replied, “One day, when I regain my memory and return to Master, I will explain today’s events to Master. Although the senior has passed away, there is still a shadow of him in the world. With Master’s magical powers, he may be able to turn the dead back to life.”

The sloppy man seemed to have no hope of this.

But after a moment, he changed his mind for some reason.

“I am the Emperor Tai Tian of the Immortal Realm.”

“I have been in power for a thousand years without being disturbed, and then I retired. When the Dao was destroyed and the situation became increasingly serious, I secretly sought a good way to solve it. This Lan Ke Taoist temple was built under my leadership.” The sloppy man said calmly.

The Hidden Emperor of the Immortal Realm, the Lan Ke Dojo, the Disaster of Dao Annihilation…

Every time a key word was said, it triggered a large amount of memories in Li Fan’s mind.

It took a long time to recover from the severe injury.

Li Fan’s expression when he looked at the sloppy man was different again.

“Since you were once the ruling Immortal Emperor in the Immortal Realm, you must have made great contributions to the world. Why did you end up in this state?” Although the words were a bit harsh, Li Fan spoke frankly and asked with full of questions.

He raised the boat in his hand and said, “But what is the reason for this thing?”

Emperor Tai Tian nodded: “That’s one of the reasons. But the most important reason is that my cultivation is not enough and I failed at the last moment.”

He sighed and seemed to be lost in memories of the past.

After a long while, he continued, “Your divine consciousness has also entered this treasure boat just now. Have you sensed the vitality of this boat?”

“I have indeed noticed something. This treasure seems to be a physical object but it is actually spiritual.”

“That’s because this retrograde boat is made of my body.” Emperor Tai Tian smiled.

Upon hearing this, Li Fan couldn’t help but look shocked.

Looking at the sloppy man in front of me, I made sure that he was not telling a joke.

“But it is rumored that the Nixing Boat was built by the so-called Nixian…”

“Oh? Nixian? I’ve never heard of it. But there may not be only one retrograde boat in the world. As long as you understand the way to go against the flow, it’s not impossible to build a new one.” Emperor Taitian looked calm.

“Understand the way to go against the flow?” Li Fan seemed to have thought of something.

“Xuantian King?”

Emperor Tai Tian did not comment: “I am just a lonely ghost, how can I know everything about the outside world? But if there is anyone in this world who can build a retrograde boat again, I think Xuanyuan Hong is the most likely one. After all, when we parted, his understanding of the retrograde way was already quite impressive.”

Li Fan remained silent.

“Some things can only be understood after experiencing them. For example, perhaps most of the things in the world can be changed by reversing time. But it is precisely that tiny part that cannot be changed that ultimately determines the final outcome of the long river of time.”

“No matter how you change the direction of the long river of time, in the end, the surging river will still flow into the peaceful vast ocean.”

“If you don’t have the power to change the entire ocean, even if you reverse time, it will be a futile struggle.” Emperor Tai Tian said calmly.

Li Fan felt a sense of familiarity as he listened to the other party’s words.

It seems that I have had similar thoughts.

“It doesn’t matter the end.”

Four big words emerged in my mind, corresponding to the picture described by Emperor Tai Tian.

“Although I was once a Immortal Emperor, how many Immortal Emperors have there been in the Immortal Realm?”

“How many people are able to be as detached as Lord Shouqiu?”

“You are Shouqiu’s disciple, and you have obtained the great way of immortality. You already have the foundation for transcendence. But I don’t know how much stronger you are than an ordinary Immortal Emperor.”

Although he was always praised by Emperor Tai Tian, Li Fan did not feel honored in his heart, but instead felt uncomfortable.

It seemed as if he did not particularly recognize Shouqiu’s identity as a disciple.

“strangeness.”

“Could it be…”

Li Fan suppressed the strange thought in his mind and followed the words of Emperor Tai Tian and asked: “A person like Master should have the power to change the entire ocean as the senior said?”

“It’s just that there is a slight possibility. In the Eternal Silence Realm, I’m afraid even Lord Shouqiu will have a hard time taking a single step.”
