My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 444 - 416: TianXuan Wants to Save the World
Chapter 444: Chapter 416: TianXuan Wants to Save the World
In this long letter of ten thousand words, cultivator Gu Xinghan revealed the true nature of the [Tianxuan Soul Locking Array] to the world.
It acts in place of Heaven, wielding its authority.
Like a shadow following its form, it orchestrates the world.
It drains cultivation, in service to Tianxuan.
All creatures, the path of Tao has no end.
The letter detailed the evils of the Spirit-locking Array, pointing out that the actual main body of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array is none other than the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals’ treasure, the [Tianxuan Mirror].
In order to achieve enlightenment and transcendence, the Tianxuan Mirror requires cultivators around the world as a sacrificial offering.
Gu Xinghan called for the cultivators to unite, shatter the Spirit-locking Formation, and return to the Xuanhuang World a resplendent cosmos.
However, the Sky Alliance immediately denied the allegations and issued a [Tianxiao Order] against Gu Xinghan.
Nonetheless, the ominous changes that ensued in the world following the widespread implementation of the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array were clear for everyone to witness over a hundred years.
The vigorous denial of the Sky Alliance could not silence the myriad of cultivators in the world.
For a while, the cultivators were agitated.
However, having ruled the Xuanhuang World for thousands of years, the Sky Alliance’s accumulated prestige still held strong.
There were only a sparse few cultivators who dared to heed Gu Xinghan’s call and stand up to resist.
However, these few sparks were quickly suppressed by the Sky Artificers dispatched by the Sky Alliance.
Yet they never managed to capture Gu Xinghan.
His efforts were not entirely in vain.
Seeds of suspicion had been sown.
The cultivators were now more cautious towards the Tianxuan mirror and the Tianxuan Spirit-locking Array.
Cultivators from all around the Xuanhuang World began to secretly seek ways to evade the observation of the Tianxuan Mirror.
Internal divisions began to emerge within the Sky Alliance as well.
There was constant news of cultivators holding positions within the Sky Alliance expressing their dissatisfaction with the Spirit-locking Array privately, only to get caught and severely punished as a warning to others.
In the 268th year, an image was projected onto the green sky dome of the Xuanhuang World.
Even though it was quickly blocked and nothing else could be seen afterwards.
Just based on that brief glimpse in front of the masses, it was enough to ignite a wave of rebellion among the cultivators.
A towering wall was located somewhere unknown.
Countless cultivators were repressed and put to sleep within the wall.
On the surface of the wall, only faces with closed eyes and strange smiles could be seen.
“Fellow Daoists, this is the [Everlasting Wall of Immortality]. The cultivators who have disappeared over the centuries have all been imprisoned here by the Sky Alliance…”
The urgent voice-over abruptly ended.
Even though it was a fleeting glimpse, the densely packed faces on the [Everlasting Wall of Immortality] were enough to send chills down the spine of all surviving cultivators.
What’s the difference between being eternally suppressed in an illusory realm and dying?
The actions of the Sky Alliance are truely horrifying, crossing the limits of what cultivators can tolerate.
For a while, across the Xuanhuang World, the cry for overthrowing the Sky Alliance and shattering the Spirit-locking Array echoed.
Inside the Sky Alliance, opponents who had been laying low ever since the Spirit-locking Array was widely spread, also took action at this time.
The flames of war were ignited across the Xuanhuang World in an instant.
Xiao Heng’s [Immortal Revival] was also one among many resistance groups.
Han Wuyou, Xiao Heng, Su Xiaomei, and others who had left the realm, joined forces and began their war against the Sky Alliance.
The power combined by the majority of cultivators from the entire world was formidable.
However, the number of [Astralmancers] in the Sky Alliance was far beyond anyone’s imagination.
The battle raged on for a full three years.
The number of cultivators kept decreasing, but the number of [Astralmancers] didn’t lessen.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Astralmancers were trying their best to capture the cultivators alive and not exert their full strength, cultivators would have suffered a complete defeat long ago.
They were in a state of decay, devoid of any trace of impending victory.
The cultivators gradually suffered defeat.
The war slowly morphed into a one-sided pursuit and capture.
In 273, the [Astralmancers] discovered the [Immortal Revival]’s base.
Zhang Haobo and Su Xiaomei died horribly in battle while covering the retreat of their comrades.
However, they could not prevent the fall of the Immortal Revival.
In the face of crisis, Su Changyu made a sudden breakthrough on the battlefield, and perished together with the Astralmancers who had come to capture them.
Only then did Xiao Heng, Han Wuyou and others manage to escape with their lives.
In 274, Xiao Heng was gravely injured and ultimately succumbed to death.
Before dying, he passed on the Immortal Revival inheritance to Han Wuyou.
Han Wuyou tearfully accepted.
With the help of [Hand Covering the Heavens] and [Furnace All-Encompassing Skill], Han Wuyou managed to evade capture by staying on the run.
In 290, very few surviving cultivators remained.
As a result, the Sky Alliance gradually slackened in their hunt.
In 304, the Sky Alliance issued a general amnesty; as long as cultivators were willing to return to the Sky Alliance and cultivate the [Sky Mending Record] annually according to their assigned quotas, all past wrongs would be forgiven.
One by one, cultivators began to venture back to the Sky Alliance from the wilderness.
In 315, after finding out that those who returned did not face the threat of death, more cultivators chose to go back.
In 324, the Sky Alliance launched a construction project with unknown objectives in various states. Towering golden pyramids rose from the ground, standing in the center of each state.
In 369, Han Wuyou broke through to the late stage of Nascent Soul. He changed his name to He Wuyou and returned to the Sky Alliance in disguise.
Han Wuyou discovered that by then, all the key positions within the Sky Alliance had been replaced by Astralmancers.
For cultivators who pledged allegiance, the Sky Alliance would still provide the corresponding cultivation resources.
However, the price was more cultivation of the “Sky Mending Record”.
In 370, Han Wuyou halted his cultivation to focus on studying the Sky Mending Record.

In 393, due to his dedicated cultivation of the Sky Mending Record for the last twenty years and contribution of a substantial amount of [Heavenly Dew Points], Han Wuyou was commended by the Sky Alliance.
He was bestowed the title of a 4th class Astralmancer and the post of [Immortal Governing Officer], responsible for overseeing the “Sky Mending” work of over a thousand cultivators.
In 404, in various parts of the Xuanhuang World, massive rays of light shot forth from the apex of the pyramids, reaching up to the heavens.
Both the land and the sky trembled.
The energy blowout of the pyramids lasted for a full seven days.
In 412, after researching for nearly forty years, Han Wuyou combined his understanding of Array techniques from the Array Breaking Round Disks and discerned the function of the [Sky Mending Record].
The Tianxuan Soul Locking Array aimed to usurp the authority of the heavens in order to replace it
Yet, the core of the Spirit-locking Formation – the Tianxuan Mirror, had overestimated its capacity.
Only when it was under overload could it manage to maintain the normal operation of the entire Spirit-locking Formation.
Therefore, it required external help to bear part of its burden.
Only cultivators could establish an interaction with “Heaven and Earth”.
This was why the Sky Alliance needed cultivators to cultivate [Sky Mending Record] and why the Astralmancers could not.
Han Wuyou faintly saw a glimmer of hope to overturn the Spirit-locking Formation.
But at the same time, he was a little worried.
Because if the Tianxuan Mirror could achieve transcendence and complete its transformation,
There would be no more need for cultivators to cultivate the [Sky Mending Record].
Without making a noise, Han Wuyou kept this knowledge to himself, continued to lay low and waited for the opportune moment.
In 434, Han Wuyou was assigned with a team of Astralmancers to handle a strange incident in the Heavenly Judgement State.
During casual conversation, Han Wuyou learned that in recent years, there had been a growing trend of strange occurrences in the world.
In 459, light shot out from the pyramids once again.
Thunderous roars echoed continuously from the sky dome.
