Chapter 468: Chapter 440: The Spirit Light Breaks the Mist
Are the Small World and Xuanhuang World not located in the same space-time?
As the lady in the green dress regarded Li Fan with a teasing smile, Li Fan’s thoughts were racing.
Is it true, or false?
Is this a test, or a fabricated lie to use as a negotiation chip?
Within a spark of thought, Li Fan swiftly analysed the situation.
If they had already discovered that he was a complete imposter, they wouldn’t waste time and words explaining things here.
Running away directly, or setting a trap to capture and interrogate him, should be the logical course of action.
This means, to a large extent, this green dress woman is still uncertain about his identity.
After all, there were indeed incidents in the history of the Xuanhuang World where the Small Worlds united to retaliate against the Immortal Cultivation World.
If the Small World and Xuanhuang World are or aren’t located in the same space-time, if he were truly a [Messenger of the United Federation of All Realms], he would certainly know.
On a matter concerning the future life and death of the Empire, this [Sacred Teacher] shouldn’t concoct a lie so easily exposed.
Therefore, it implies that what she said could very likely be the truth.
At least, in the eyes of the woman in the green dress, it is the truth.
A question naturally emerged as a result.
If the Small World and Xuanhuang World aren’t located in the same space-time, then in the face of the threat from the [Immortal Ruins], why didn’t the assembly of cultivators in the Xuanhuang World choose to escape to various small worlds through the Immortal Termination Channel, and then sever their connection with the Xuanhuang World?
If one says Nascent Soul, God Transformation, Integration Cultivator might lack sufficient spiritual energy and power to sever the channel.
Then for the Immortal Sovereign, these restrictions can almost be ignored.
So why wouldn’t the Immortal Sovereigns run?
The answer to this question is either fearlessness, reluctance, or inability.
Fearlessness?
In the previous life, when the [Unified Heart Celestial Master] faced the mutual threat of destruction with the Spirit-locking Formation, he chose to retreat. This indicated that, even the strong cultivators in the Immortal Realm, can’t ensure their survival in the Immortal Ruins.
Consequently, this possibility can be ruled out.
Reluctance? Noble, unafraid of death and inseparable, falling with Xuanhuang World into the Immortal ruins?
Viewed from the path these cultivators took to enlightenment in this world, it seems long way off from the choice the current Immortal Sovereigns would make.
Then, only one answer remains.
The Immortal Sovereigns can’t leave Xuanhuang World?
The moment this idea surged, Li Fan found it preposterously funny in his heart.
The power of those in the Immortal Realm is terrifying.
How is it possible that…
Suddenly, Li Fan found himself in a daze.
Assume, assume this being true.
All this time, Li Fan had one question.
Why does Contrary to the Logic of Heaven and Earth bestow Longevity?
All the Living Beings in the World, have a destined end.
Even the rumored eternal species are only living longer than common beings.
If there is indeed something that truly qualifies as “Longevity” in the Xuanhuang world, it’s probably Heaven and Earth itself.
Why do those who defy the Principle of Heaven and Earth, accomplish a thorough metamorphosis.
Won’t a cultivator’s lifespan coincides with that of Heaven and Earth?
“The Principle of Heaven and Earth, Contrary to the Logic of Heaven and Earth…”
Suddenly, a scene flashed across Li Fan’s Spirit Consciousness.
In the previous life, Ji Hongdao, faced with Sister Zhao’s aggressive oppression, once said, “After the Celestial Master establishes a [theorem], he should not participate in commonplace disputes.”
“Theorem.”
These two words were like a flash of lightning, piercing the mist.
Li Fan came to realize a point he had been ignoring for a long time.
The World Creatures, forget troubles and be happy.
The World Creatures, must respect the Celestial Dharma Bearer’s Cultivation Method.
These rules, contrary to reason, truly exist between Heaven and Earth today.
This means …
After reversing the original Principle of Heaven and Earth, the principles of the Celestial Masters’ attainment replaced it, becoming the new Principle of Heaven and Earth, and a part of the world.
It is precisely because of this reason that they obtained a lifespan as enduring as Heaven and Earth.
For the same reason, the Immortal Sovereigns cannot leave the Xuanhuang World.
Before reaching the Immortal Realm, the cultivators were like robbers who ransacked a house. The furniture and treasures in the house were taken away by them.
But some greedy ones attracted the attention of the house itself.
They wanted to take over the nest and claim ownership of the house.
They succeeded, but triggered the house’s ultimate countermeasure.
The door slammed shut, they became the house owners, but were also forever trapped inside.
“Is this the retaliation of Heaven and Earth?”
Li Fan suddenly gained enlightenment.
Li Fan understood a principle.
Faced with cultivators who plunder Heaven and Earth, Heaven and Earth itself is not completely defenceless.
Aside from sudden rules like the impossibility of dual cultivation of Immortal Laws, and the descending of the Essence of Heaven and Earth to execute its Heavenly Duty, aimed at common cultivators.
Faced with Immortal Sovereigns who threaten its own existence, Heaven and Earth chooses an extreme countermeasure.
That is, “If you can’t beat them, join them”.
Without a doubt, this method is effective.
Because once they became Immortal Sovereigns, their allegiance switched from that of cultivators to Heaven and Earth.
Cultivators plunder Heaven and Earth, if unchecked, it may eventually lead to Heaven and Earth’s depletion and decline.
But Immortal Sovereigns, being inseparable from the world, must prevent this from happening for their own safety.
That’s why there’s a need to artificially control the development of the number of cultivators.
This is also one of the reasons why the number of cultivators must not be too many.
Li Fan then thought about the time when the Immortal Dao Ten Clans had offered a reward for the Mystic Sky Treasure Mirror.
It was announced anyone with this mirror could exchange it for a seat of Fruit of Eternal Life.
“It seems, the Immortal Realm’s Sovereigns of ancient times might have used some methods to steal the original principle of eternity from Heaven and Earth.”
Li Fan contemplated.
This thorough analysis left Li Fan slightly disappointed.
The Immortal Sovereigns of Xuanhuang World are still a bit far from the “Eternity” that he was hoping for.
Simply borrowed the power of Heaven and Earth to obtain a lifespan that doesn’t belong to themselves.
“False immortality…”
“But strictly speaking, it’s not something that’s particularly difficult to accept.”
“After all, in this realm, the [Immortal Realm] is just an attempt by the cultivators in the Xuanhuang World to extend their lifespan after their path to immortality was cut off.”
“Moreover, it’s not impossible to take another step forward.”
Li Fan thought of the Celestial Dharma Bearer who disappeared in his previous life.
“This pioneer of the new law, perhaps he had already taken a step ahead and broke free from the shackles of the world.”
“No wonder in the last life, Celestial Dharma Bearer didn’t appear for thousands of years. And when facing the wars that erupted from time to time between the two factions, the Celestial Masters from the Five Elders Organization didn’t take any action.”
“Because in the perspective of the Celestial Masters from the Five Elders Organization, since the Immortal Realm cannot leave the Xuanhuang World, then the Celestial Dharma Bearer must still be somewhere.”
“Just by virtue of a paper contract, they had restrained them.”
“Until later, they finally realized something was amiss. That’s why they hurriedly took action personally to probe…”
The medicinal effect of the Enlightenment Pill had not fully dissipated yet.
Under the sudden enlightenment and coincidental factors, through the truth inadvertently implied by the lady in the green dress, Li Fan deductions revealed a possible, logically consistent truth about the Xuanhuang World.
