My Longevity Simulation - Chapter 1557

[Chapter 1536: Long River Anchor Point]

“It’s still the same.” The female cultivator named Cao Yingyue sighed, “We barely managed to kill off one group, but I estimate they will come back again in seven days.”

Duan Yuxiao consoled her, “Thank you for your hard work, Junior Sister. I’ve seen that the situation in other strongholds is not optimistic either. This place is not even the front line…”

The two looked at each other and fell into silence.

“But there is good news. It is said that with the joint efforts of all parties, they have finally deduced the specific location of that thing. They are preparing for a surprise attack and will accomplish their goal in one fell swoop…” Cao Yingyue said quietly.

Duan Yuxiao felt somewhat relieved when he heard this: “I hope this time, we can end this war once and for all. We have shed too much blood on this land.”

“But even if that thing is destroyed, the enemy’s final counterattack will become more crazy. Junior sister, you have to be careful.” Duan Yuxiao reminded.

“I understand this principle.” Cao Yingyue nodded.

The two communicated secretly, and although they were communicating through voice transmission, they could not escape the prying eyes of Li Fan standing beside them.

“As the saying goes, secrets make the best of everything. Such a secret as taking the Taiyuan Furnace was revealed so easily. After fighting for so long, the front lines of the Ten Sects are still at this level…” Li Fan secretly complained in his heart.

Suddenly, his thoughts came to a sudden halt.

“wrong!”

“At this point in time, the ten sects of the Immortal Dao have joined forces to rule the entire Xuanhuang Realm, and they are still at their peak level before the catastrophe. They also have immortal tools such as the Burning Dao Furnace. If they really want to keep it secret, it is impossible not to do it.”

“So it was spread deliberately to make it known to everyone.”

Li Fan’s thoughts turned and he understood immediately.

“The Ten Sects were unable to determine the location of the Taiyuan Resurrection Furnace, so they released the news and deliberately alerted the enemy.”

“I hope that the Taiyuan Realm can move the Taiyuan Furnace, thus exposing it…”

“It has actually come to the point where they have to resort to such a scheme. It seems that the situation of the Ten Sects is indeed not optimistic.”

Just from a corner of the battlefield, Li Fan had already seen the whole picture of the battle.

But at this time Li Fan still pretended to be completely ignorant, with a little nervousness and fear on his face.

After Duan Yuxiao sent Li Fan there, he quickly said goodbye and left.

Cao Yingyue watched her senior brother fly away with a complicated expression.

At this moment…

A stream of light shot out from the depths of Taiyuan Realm at lightning speed. It instantly pierced through Duan Yuxiao’s body!

Without even a sound of struggle, Duan Yuxiao turned into a pool of flesh and blood and exploded.

The soul flew away, the body died and disappeared!

Cao Yingyue was stunned at first, and then she realized what had happened.

“Senior Brother!”

A heart-wrenching cry came out of her throat, and Cao Yingyue fled quickly towards the scene of the tragedy.

But just when it reached mid-air, it stopped abruptly.

“Enemy attack!”

“Form a formation!”

Cao Yingyue’s voice spread throughout the Xuanhuang Realm Fortress. She seemed to have regained her composure in a short period of time, but her slightly trembling body still exposed her inner thoughts.

Shortly after Cao Yingyue gave the order, Li Fan saw that hundreds of thousands of cultivators, covering the entire sky and earth, fearlessly pouring out from the depths of the Taiyuan Realm.

Countless streams of light flew and charged towards the defense line set up by the Xuanhuang Realm.

The fortress where Li Fan was located also became an insignificant one among those hit by this terrifying wave.

The situation changed so quickly that Cao Yingyue and the monks in the fortress had no time to care about Li Fan.

Coupled with the blessing of the magical power of illusion and truth, Li Fan seemed to be forgotten by the battlefield at this moment.

However, Li Fan’s situation was not so good.

Because of him, Duan Yuxiao died unexpectedly. And the backlash of the long river of time brought about by this chain reaction was even more intense than he expected.

“It seems that this Tai Shang Zong Duan Yuxiao has a pivotal position in the original future. But it is understandable. After all, the war situation has reached such a critical juncture, and he, Duan Yuxiao, is still able to stay in the rear instead of going to the battlefield.” Li Fan looked at the surroundings that were suddenly caught in a precarious situation and tried his best to keep his body steady.

It was thanks to the foundation he had laid in Changqing Valley, otherwise it might not have been able to withstand the erosion of wind and rain.

“If nothing unexpected happens, the Xuanhuang Realm should be badly defeated in this battle and eventually retreat in disgrace.”

“And then all records of this humiliating defeat were erased.”

“From then on, the fortunes of the ten sects went from prosperity to decline. After experiencing the rise of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, the inability to practice together, the miasma of immortals and mortals, and other disasters, they were finally completely lost in history.”

“This critical node happens to be where I establish my foundation!” A gleam of light flashed in Li Fan’s eyes.

If it were an ordinary person, who had just nearly died in the turmoil caused by the change in the course of the long river of time, he would definitely use a safe method to stabilize the anchor point first, and then try other things.

However, Li Fan did the opposite and saw a way to quickly build a stable anchor point.

“If this anchor point is built, even if the river of time changes course and creates a completely different future, I will be able to remain safe in the upheaval. Because all the Xuanhuang monks in the future will remember my deeds.”

“It is not just an anchor for a moment in time. It is a legacy that will last forever, spanning the ages!”

Li Fan was inspired by the power of the Great Dao of Immortality that he had seen in the long river of time, like towering lighthouses.

So in a flash, the decision was made.

“However, it is not advisable to take drastic actions right from the start.”

“The butterfly’s wings will begin to flap from this fortress.”

Li Fan looked at the battlefield in the distance. Cao Yingyue was being besieged by three Taiyuan Realm cultivators and her situation was getting worse. She was about to follow in the footsteps of her senior brother.

Just a snap of the fingers.

Cao Yingyue, who was originally seriously injured and whose consciousness had become a little blurred, suddenly saw the scene of the tragic death of his admired senior brother Duan.

He should have had a promising future, but now he died in vain on this battlefield. A surge of anger suddenly rose in Cao Yingyue’s heart, accompanied by an endless force that burned like a raging fire.

Cao Yingyue, whose body and soul seemed to be burning and who had fallen into a state of madness, raised his sword and killed the three Taiyuan Realm cultivators who were besieging him.

Then he continued to fight fearlessly and counterattacked the monks who attacked the fortress.

After seeing Cao Yingyue’s heroic performance, the monks from the ten sects stationed here were all infected and fought to the death.

After a fierce stand for most of the day, the Taiyuan Realm cultivators who had been attacking like locusts were finally temporarily repelled.

The monks simply thought it was the reward for their persistence.

But no one could have expected that this was Li Fan’s secret arrangement.

It’s not just this fortress. If you raise your vision and look at the entire Taiyuan Realm, you can see that the originally integrated Taiyuan Realm Avenue seems to have been mixed with some impurities and has begun to become turbid.

An invisible line like a ravine spans the entire Taiyuan Realm, dividing the battlefield.

The cultivators from the Taiyuan Realm who noticed the change were forced to retreat.

The monks from the ten sects who survived the calamity lay weakly on the ground, enjoying what might be their last moments.

Li Fan was almost exhausted, just like them.

It was not just because of the influence he exerted through his own enlightenment and the formation he quietly laid out. This was a major move that changed the overall situation of the Taiyuan Realm.

It is also because we have to face the waves that the long river of time will bring again.

“This is the limit of what I can do now.”

“The foundation we laid earlier is no longer enough in the face of such storms.”

Li Fan, feeling his own shaky state, deliberately released a strong wave.

It immediately attracted the attention of the surviving monks around.

For a moment, everyone looked at him sideways: “Is this a breakthrough?”

“Haha, Yuanying stage. It just barely increases the chance of survival.”

“However, he was able to survive the sudden attack and battle just now at the Jindan realm. He was also able to achieve enlightenment and breakthrough after the battle… This person is not simple! Where does he come from? It seems that I have never seen him before.”

“Between life and death, there is great terror. But there is also great opportunity. Master never lied to me!”

…

As people started talking about it, rumors about “Li Ping” from Changqing Valley gradually spread.

The mere fact that he volunteered to go to the battlefield was enough to impress the monks from the ten sects who had personally experienced the life and death of war.

Before the changes in heaven and earth were completely resolved, the Taiyuan Realm did not dare to continue the attack.

Everyone was able to spend a relatively peaceful night.

At night, Cao Yingyue, who was in a coma, suddenly fell into the nightmare of the tragic death of Senior Brother Duan.

“Senior Brother!” she exclaimed instinctively.

Senior Brother Duan seemed to have noticed her cry, and before disappearing, he looked at her affectionately.

Then, a point of light flew out from his body.

Gradually entered Cao Yingyue’s mind.

Boom!

The nightmare was swept away instantly, and a scene as brilliant as the starry sky suddenly appeared in front of Cao Yingyue’s eyes.

This incomparably magnificent scene made her temporarily forget the pain in her heart.

“Taishang Daojing?”

In front of this unparalleled beauty, Cao Yingyue could not help but be stunned.

…

After Cao Yingyue woke up, Li Fan took the initiative to come to her house and apologize.

“Guilt? What crime have you committed?” Cao Yingyue said coldly.

“If Senior Brother Duan hadn’t sent me to the battlefield, he wouldn’t have…” Li Fan said with his head down, feeling very guilty.

“…”

In fact, Cao Yingyue did have such thoughts in her heart. But she also knew that she couldn’t blame the other party for this. As the saying goes, life and death are unpredictable. On the battlefield, life does not belong to oneself. It all depends on God’s will.

Duan Yuxiao’s life is his life, but are the lives of countless disciples of the ten sects of the immortal way not their lives? Besides, Li Fan is also a loyal and brave monk who volunteered to go to the battlefield.

If she used this as an excuse to cause trouble, the monks from dozens of sects on the battlefield would not agree.

Cao Yingyue naturally knew this truth and had already let it go.

At this moment, Li Fan took the initiative to reveal it, and it was like a breeze passing by, wiping out the matter in one stroke.

“Live well.”

“Together for Senior Brother Duan.”

Cao Yingyue said expressionlessly.

…

In the following six months, dozens of battles of varying sizes broke out again between the Taiyuan Realm and the Xuanhuang Realm.

Although the Ten Sects still suffered heavy losses, they were able to hold on with the help of Xuan Huang and their powerful blood transfusion ability.

Although the monks of the Taiyuan Realm could be resurrected from the dead, the Taiyuan Heaven and Earth would occasionally move abnormally, which greatly affected the efficiency of their resurrection. Before they could thoroughly understand the source of the abnormality, they did not dare to launch a full-scale counterattack.

So the battle situation came to a stalemate for a while.

Faced with the direction of the next battle, differences have gradually begun to arise within the ten sects.

Now it seems that the immortal spirit in the Taiyuan Resurrection Furnace will not be consumed in a short period of time. Although they are reluctant, they have to admit that they made a fatal misjudgment before.

However, now that things have come to this, we can only pursue the responsibilities of each party after the war is over. The key now is what to do next.

Having already missed it once, the Xuanhuang Realm cannot afford to make another mistake.

There are quite a few people who advocate withdrawing troops.

There are countless people who remain silent and share the same idea.

However, the reason why all ten sects appear to be determined to fight to the death is the floating starry sky formation inherited from the ancient Xuantian Sect.

Originally intended as a way to escape from the Immortal Ruins, the golden chains floating across the starry sky brought them hope.

But I didn’t expect it to be a quagmire of doom.

And now, they are stuck in this quagmire and cannot extricate themselves.

The so-called quagmire not only refers to the war itself, but also refers to the golden chain!

The Xuanhuang Realm naturally also noticed the changes in the world that had taken place in the Taiyuan Realm.

They didn’t know the specific situation of the Taiyuan Resurrection Furnace, but they saw the changes in the Floating Starry Sky Array.

The Hengkong Golden Lock, which had already reached its limit and was about to break completely, actually slowly recovered!

This was originally a happy event worthy of celebration for all ten sects.

However, no one in the ten sects could be happy.

Because the price of the restoration of Hengkong Jinsuo is that it is slowly merging into the world of Taiyuan Realm!

Why did this strange and extraordinary thing happen? All the cultivators, including the heads of the ten sects, were at a loss.

There was just an established fact before them: even if they wanted to withdraw now, they couldn’t.

The golden lock across the sky, as part of the floating starry sky formation, connects to the Xuanhuang Realm.

Even if they evacuated the Taiyuan Realm, if they did not take back the golden lock, the Taiyuan cultivators would be able to attack and invade along the chain.

If you cut the chain…

The Floating Starry Sky Formation has already reached the realm of an immortal formation. Although the Ten Sects claim to be the inheritance of the immortal world, they have not yet reached the point where they can freely transform the immortal formation. All they can do now is to activate and manipulate the formation.

More importantly, the Xuanhuang Realm is still in the abyss of the Immortal Ruins. If the chains are forcibly cut off, it is very likely that the Xuanhuang Realm will suffer heavy damage and fall into the Immortal Ruins. Therefore, the ten sects collectively denied this plan.

Therefore, there is only one way forward for the ten sects.

Next, even if we don’t continue to attack Taiyuan Realm, we must set up a defensive fortress to prevent Taiyuan Realm’s counterattack.

To this end, more manpower is needed.

“Everyone, have you heard that organizations called the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance have emerged in various places in the Xuanhuang Realm?”

“It’s just some random cultivators messing around.”

“I originally thought that I would suppress them after the Taiyuan Realm incident was resolved. Now it seems…”

“Maybe we can pull them into the battlefield.”
