My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 819 - 782: The Momentum of the Immortal Ruins Grows Stronger
Chapter 819: Chapter 782: The Momentum of the Immortal Ruins Grows Stronger
Boom!
As soon as these words were spoken, it seemed to have a huge impact on Chen Tianhai, or perhaps on the disciples of the Taiyan Sect within the Transformation Stone Mother.
In an instant, all the blue phantoms in the Suspended City stopped their activities and looked unanimously towards Xu Bai.
It was as if the entire city had fallen into absolute stillness, with only that deep blue color silently flowing.
A moment later.
...
Chen Tianhai gently stomped his foot again.
The walls within the space became opaque, blocking the view from inside and out.
Chen Tianhai also reverted back to the appearance of an ordinary cultivator.
“From the current situation, we indeed cannot rule out the possibility that you mentioned,”
Chen Tianhai’s tone became quite solemn, “In fact, as one of the few entities that could pose a threat to us—”
“We have inferred the possible scenarios within [Immortal Ruins] several times.”
“But first, the known information is too scarce. And secondly… ”
“All attempts to probe the Immortal Ruins have failed. They all disappeared without a trace. Therefore, we cannot verify the reliability of the inference results.”
Chen Tianhai explained, while looking towards Xu Bai.
Xu Bai smiled, “But you don’t have any Huadao Stones left, so what will you use to trade with me?”
“Do I look like the kind of person who would give away benefits out of sheer kindness?”
Chen Tianhai seriously sized up Xu Bai and nodded, “From your appearance, indeed not.”
“However, we do not place our hopes on others.”
“I think, there is something you might be interested in.”
Chen Tianhai extended his left hand and plunged it straight into his own head.
Thankfully, no brain matter or blood spurted out. His hand became phantom-like upon touching the brain and didn’t cause harm.
Meanwhile, Chen Tianhai’s head seemed to be split into countless small, flickering blue squares.
This sight appeared rather odd.
After searching for a moment, Chen Tianhai finally withdrew his hand.
He displayed the item in his palm to Xu Bai and Fang Zaiji.
“What is this?” Xu Bai squinted slightly.
A miniaturized version of the floating city lay quietly in his hand.
Unlike the Transformation Stone Mother with its profound blue color,

it resembled glass—sparkling, translucent, and fragile.
“A one-time replica of the Transformation Stone Mother. Inspired by the [Tianxuan Treasure Mirror] of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, it is a relatively independent entity that still possesses a part of the Stone Mother’s capabilities,” said Chen Tianhai without a trace of emotion.
“What’s its use?” Fang Zaiji’s eyes lit up, and he reached out to grab the miniaturized Suspended City.
But he grasped at thin air.
Chen Tianhai and the Stone Mother Replica both instantly turned illusory, unable to be touched.
Fang Zaiji pursed his lips.
“The Stone Mother Replica contains all the information of the original as well as the energy to run one [Simulation].”
“Through this simulation, you can experience the future as inferred by the Transformation Stone Mother.” As if in response to Chen Tianhai’s words, a dazzling light suddenly burst from the Stone Mother Replica in his hand.
Within the white light, it seemed as if countless scenes were flashing by rapidly.
“Simulation? How reliable can that be?” Fang Zaiji clearly heard about this for the first time and didn’t seem very convinced.
And Xu Bai was staring intently at the Stone Mother Replica, lost in thought.
The brightness of the white light gradually decreased, and the rapidly changing scenes within slowly came to a halt.
“Eh? Why am I seeing myself and the Sect Master in there?” Fang Zaiji noticed something unusual and asked with a hint of astonishment.
“Based on the results of this simulation, you should agree to our trade request,” Chen Tianhai crushed the Stone Mother Replica in his hand, and moments later, it happened just as he said.
The scenes of Xu Bai trading with them suddenly emerged in the midst of the crowd.
Although upon close inspection, one could find that there were still some differences in the details when compared to the real world.
But seeing one’s own “future” was still somewhat unsettling.
“You’re being a bit too confident. Sect Master, let’s not be fooled by him,” Fang Zaiji said, seemingly quite annoyed.
Xu Bai gave Fang Zaiji a placid look, “Mr. Fang, are you sure you’re not directing your enticing strategy at the wrong person? It seems to me you’re quite envious of this item.”
Caught out on his little scheme, Fang Zaiji gave an embarrassed chuckle.
“However…” Xu Bai gazed at the scenes that kept repeating before him.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, “The Tianxuan Treasure Mirror enters the body, revealing all secrets of a cultivator’s physique to the Tianxuan Mirror.”
“Does this Stone Mother Replica also work in the same way?”
Chen Tianhai smiled, “That depends on you.”
“The more the data resembles reality, the more accurate the simulation results will be. We have been living in seclusion within the Great Void Cave Heaven for thousands of years. Although we calibrate the results of the Transformation Stone Mother’s inferences every once in a while, we can only manage to make them superficially consistent.”
“The Xuanhuang World holds many secrets, and even the Celestial Dharma Bearer probably wouldn’t dare to claim to be [The All-Knowing].”
“The Stone Mother Replica doesn’t have the ability to perceive everything like the Tianxuan Treasure Mirror. Instead, it requires the user to complete their own data. If you wish to deliberately conceal something, you can do so. However, the inferred results may also deviate accordingly,” said Chen Tianhai with a straightforward expression.
“The Alliance of Thousands of Immortals said the same thing at first. The Tianxuan Treasure Mirror can be seen as an independent entity, not connected to the Tianxuan Mirror. All cultivators can use it without concern.”
“But what happened later…” Fang Zaiji said with a hint of disdain.
“We at the Taiyan Sect are different,” Chen Tianhai’s expression suddenly turned very serious, “Here, lies are absolutely forbidden.”
“The world within the Stone Mother is built upon real inferences. Any false information could potentially lead to the collapse of the subsequent Inference world,” Chen Tianhai briefly explained.
“You may not believe this. But that doesn’t change the fact that it is true.”
Hearing these words, Fang Zaiji showed a skeptical look, while Xu Bai nodded and said, “I believe.”
“Then let’s trade.”
Such decisiveness greatly surprised the two others present.
“Sect Master…” Fang Zaiji started to speak but then hesitated.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Chen Tianhai quickly produced another Stone Mother Replica from his head.
Xu Bai, as if he had been prepared all along, took a Projection Stone from his Storage Ring.
In a split second, the trade was completed.
Chen Tianhai directly played the footage recorded in the Projection Stone, showing the Medicine King Cauldron escaping from the Xuanhuang World and being drawn to the [Immortal Ruins].
It was played three times over.
As the light and shadow disappeared, Chen Tianhai’s face showed a grave expression: “It seems you weren’t wrong.”
“If the data you provided is real,”
“then the attraction of the [Immortal Ruins] has indeed been growing stronger over the years.”
