My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1549 - 1335: The Misty Starry Sky Journey_2

Chapter 1549 -1335: The Misty Starry Sky Journey_2

“Although Meteoric Ice Hail is extremely dangerous, at the cores of the countless icy meteor clusters, a peculiar substance known as Extreme Abyss Ice Dust is often born. It is said that just a speck of this substance can freeze an entire Immortal Cultivation World of ordinary size. And the power of the ice-shattering force that erupts when it explodes is almost as formidable as the creation of heavens and earth.”

“So, did the pursuit succeed?” Li Fan was completely absorbed and couldn’t help but ask.

“There’s no record of it in the Mystic Immortal Boat. However, I suspect that some Extreme Abyss Ice Dust was indeed found. Sun Piaomiao took away some, and left behind three items as chips for the exchange. As for what remained, it was likely taken away by the Merchant Immortal Boat later,” Zhong Daogong said, his tone full of regret.

Upon hearing this, Li Fan was not surprised. After all, back then, as the de facto victor, the Merchant Immortal Boat had taken nearly all the powers close to Immortality from the boat. According to Zhong Daogong’s description, the power of the Extreme Abyss Ice Dust at the moment of explosion was almost comparable to that of a True Immortal, so it was normal for it to be selected by the Merchant Immortal Boat.

The focus lay on the three items that Sun Piaomiao had left behind.

“I don’t seem to have seen these few things in the secret records of the Hundred Hearings Immortal Record before? Could they also have gone to the Merchant Immortal Boat?” Li Fan frowned and asked.

Zhong Daogong smiled: “That’s not the case. These three items are still in the collection of the Mystic Immortal Boat. It’s just that what you visited earlier was merely the surface of the secret stash. These items should be on the second layer of the secret stash.”

Li Fan wasn’t annoyed, instead, he jokingly asked, “It sounds like there might be a third layer, a fourth layer.”

“The deepest is the third layer. You also know of the incident where it was stolen by outsiders; it’s just the necessary preventative measures,” Zhong Daogong said, his expression unchanged, not showing the slightest embarrassment.

Li Fan didn’t dwell on the matter further, his gaze landing on the three relics left by Sun Piaomiao.

The style of these items was very similar to that of the Drooped Hand Puppet.

One was a Broken-Winged Ashen Bird, which, despite broken wings, still held its head high and chirped proudly.

The second was a Trident Tree, where at the end of the branches, instead of leaves, there were countless miniature trees.

As for the third item, it was very familiar to Li Fan. It was a small cauldron, almost identical in appearance to the Medicine King Cauldron of the Medicine King Sect!

“This Sun Piaomiao doesn’t seem like some peerless strongman. Yet, the gifted items contain the power to compete with forces beyond the high walls…” Li Fan’s tone was inexplicable.

Zhong Daogong said solemnly: “In the era of Sun Piaomiao, the path to Immortality had not been severed. There are even records of True Immortals descending to the mortal realm. Although the records of Sun Piaomiao’s deeds from the Immortal Boat suggest that his strength was about at the Unity Path Summit, one cannot exclude the possibility of him concealing his true strength.”

Li Fan nodded slightly.

Yet he did not reveal his own speculation.

Sun Piaomiao was able to traverse the Starry Sky alone and return safely; his strength was naturally beyond doubt.

But certainly, he did not achieve Ascension to Immortality.

In the long ancient eras of the Immortal Cultivation World, the records of those in Xuanhuang World who ascended to become Immortals were all mysteriously erased, with no traces to be found.

This is the so-called Nameless True Immortals.

This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

Perhaps only witnesses like Morubin, who lived through the change of eras, could keep the memories of Dharma Profound Monk’s Ascension and fall alive through oral tradition.

Firstly, the descendants of the Medicine King Sect did not mention the ascension of their ancestor Sun Piaomiao to Immortality. Even Sun Piaomiao’s ultimate fate was unclear. Whether he died a natural death, perished unexpectedly, or disappeared without a trace? The records of Sun Piaomiao only continued up to his return from his journeys in the Starry Sky. After that, there was no more information.

Secondly, Sun Piaomiao not only existed in the records of the Medicine King Sect. Many books in the Xuanhuang World mentioned him, the peerless Strongman who created the lineage of the Medicine King and was a healer to the world. They did not erase his existence.

“When Sun Piaomiao traversed the Starry Sky back then, he also wanted to travel deeper into the Star Domain, but he discovered some special characteristics of the space where the Xuanhuang World is located and ultimately turned back…”

“Was it unwillingness, or inability?”

As Li Fan pondered, Zhong Daogong spoke again: “These three items left by Sun Piaomiao, just like the Drooped Hand Puppet you chose before, though carefully inspected by the Immortal Boat, none was found to have anything special. But since they all come from Sun Piaomiao, perhaps some secrets are hidden within…”

Li Fan did not respond, and the rest of the Elders began to grow restless.

“Why don’t we go have a look right away!”

Li Fan watched Zhong Daogong indifferently.

Zhong Daogong smiled slightly: “Given your contributions over this period of time, entering the second layer of the Hundred Hearings Immortal Record’s secret stash, I think no Elder would object.”

After a short while, Li Fan followed the elders and entered the second level of the Hundred Hearings Immortal Record.

Compared to the first space, this one was evidently much smaller.

All treasures were sealed within colorful spheres, floating in the air.

The protection was not an Array Technique, nor Forbidden Formation, nor True Immortal Seal Characters.

Li Fan squinted at the myriad of treasure spheres in the sky, faintly sensing a trace of life from them.

“These spheres… are they alive?”

Zhong Daogong nodded in approval: “Your intuition is indeed sharp!”

“That’s right, the protector of the second layer of the treasure house is indeed a magical creature: the Heavenly Star Light Lotus. This being, even during the prosperous times of the ancient Star Sea, was extremely rare. Its dreamy radiance enveloped most of the Star Domain, weaving into the illusion of a lotus. When the flower blooms, the Star Domain is shrouded in dazzling light; when the flower withers, the Star Domain plunges into the darkness of death silence.”

“Whenever a world in the Star Domain falls into destruction, a lotus seed would form within the Light Lotus. Over billions of years, through the cycles of ancient times… the spheres you see here were formed in this way.”

Listening to Zhong Daogong’s explanation, Li Fan seemed to envision the grand spectacle that happened in the ancient Star Sea.

“In the past, Merchant Immortal Boats took away many treasures, and this Heavenly Star Light Lotus is considered one of the most valuable items left behind.”

“The treasures are stored inside the lotus seeds, not easily retrievable. If one wishes to forcefully extract them by brute force…”

Zhong Daogong snorted coldly: “Unless you destroy the entire Heavenly Star Light Lotus! This spirit is parasitic to the Star Sea. Having survived countless catastrophes, its life persists, and to destroy it, one must possess immortal power!”

“Moreover, we have tested it; even if we use the power of True Immortal Seal Characters, it would take quite a while to destroy it.” The elders of the Immortal Boat were obviously very confident in the protection provided by the Heavenly Star Light Lotus.

Yet a thought flickered through Li Fan’s mind: “In my previous life, under the All Things Return To Void Great Array, this Heavenly Star Light Lotus didn’t seem to struggle for long.”

“Now, I don’t even need to use an Immortal Array, a Dust-lowering Finger could destroy it. However, while destruction is easy, extracting the stored items from the lotus seeds is indeed difficult.”

The elders of the Immortal Boat were naturally unaware of Li Fan’s dangerous thoughts, and joined forces to open the sphere that stored the three relics of Sun Piaomiao.

All eyes converged on the three treasures.

Li Fan’s mind stirred subtly, as he felt the same extraordinary movement from the Trident Tree as he did from the Drooped Hand Puppet.

However, he did not publicize it and observed carefully along with the Elder of the Immortal Boat.

The Broken-Winged Ashen Bird and the second Medicine King Cauldron didn’t seem to contain any special power.

“Disaster Shielding Amulet… almost like a projection of the Dao. Sun Piaomiao was indeed no simple character.”

“Moreover, this ability was not passed on to the Medicine King Sect.”

Li Fan’s gaze flickered, suppressing the burgeoning desire to absorb the Hai Zhen essence.

“Everyone, have you made any discoveries?” After a long observation, Zhong Daogong asked aloud.

“I can’t see anything peculiar, but indeed, all these items give me a strange feeling.” Lu Yuzhi’s comments garnered agreement from the other elders.

If one was unaware of the anomalies of these three items, at first glance, there would seem to be nothing wrong.

But if one observes again knowing the anomalies, a sense of discord arises naturally.

If it were just one or two people feeling this way, one might explain it as an illusion.

But when over ten elders present all feel the same…

Then it is definitely not as simple as a mere illusion.
