My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1679 - 1395: Indeed Due to that Year Reason

Chapter 1679 -1395: Indeed Due to that Year Reason

“In this extra simulation, it seems that I do not possess the exotic treasure Huanzhen. Other than that, everything mirrors my personal experience perfectly.”

Recalling the countless images that just flashed through his spirit consciousness, Li Fan’s expression turned heavy.

When the Dao Yan black qi consumed the collapsing Xuanhuang World, with no escape possible, he didn’t attempt to activate Huanzhen—he simply waited helplessly for death to come.

“But in the simulation, I felt no abnormality about Huanzhen’s absence. It was as if the simulated version of me never owned this treasure to begin with. From the moment I initiated the extra simulation, a branch emerged where Huanzhen was removed…”

“Interesting. Even in Huanzhen’s simulation, if it’s an extra one, and the main simulation already exists, does the branch simulation still fail to simulate itself?” Li Fan’s thoughts stirred, and suddenly, a flash of spirit light illuminated his mind, as though he had caught a glimpse of understanding.

Yet this inspiration was fleeting, like a candle in the darkness, quickly swallowed by the boundless void around him. When Li Fan tried to recall it, no matter how hard he tried, it refused to surface again.

Realizing he might have missed his chance to uncover Huanzhen’s secret, Li Fan’s expression faltered momentarily, laced with quiet melancholy.

But he soon managed to pull himself together.

Li Fan firmly believed that as his comprehension of [Truth and Deception Transformation] continued to deepen, and his resonance with Huanzhen continued to increase, one day he would truly and completely uncover Huanzhen’s mysteries.

Exhaling deeply, Li Fan collected his thoughts and began carefully reflecting on his experience in the branch simulation.

“The plan for Xuanhuang Sublimation has mostly gone as expected. Preparations have few errors, and there weren’t any unforeseen enemies.”

“The sole obstruction to Xuanhuang Ascension is that it remains just short of the final qualitative leap. This is where the chasm between Immortal and Mortal begins.”

“What exactly must be done to achieve this leap?”

Suddenly, countless solutions flashed through Li Fan’s mind.

“Immortal-Mortal Transformation Characters? Or should I still use the Immortal Domain Chess Piece? Alternatively, perhaps I could base efforts on the remnants of the Ancient Immortal Formation to attempt repairs on the Floating Star Crossing Formation?” freёweɓnovel.com

Each attempt carried endless possibilities. Most existences linked to “Immortals” were entirely shrouded in uncertainty—beyond what Li Fan was currently capable of deriving. His thoughts grew exhaustive, but he still couldn’t pinpoint the most viable solution.

It seemed as if every option was feasible—but equally, it seemed as if they could all fail.

“Could it be that I’m doomed never to achieve Unity-Path, nor ascend to the immortal realm?”

“If nothing works, I’ll just try every method one by one. Eventually, I’ll find the correct path to ascend.” As these dejected thoughts silently formed, they grew rapidly within Li Fan’s heart, like a river breaking its banks, flooding tens of thousands of miles—utterly shattering his mental defenses.

His spirit consciousness became storm-tossed, chaotic and restless.

Li Fan no longer pondered the conditions for achieving Xuanhuang Sublimation. Instead, he began to consider how to end this lifetime and formulate a plan for the next.

The plan was meticulous.

Yet for some reason, Li Fan remained gravely unsettled.

Theoretically, everything that occurred in the simulation could be recreated through another simulation. In the world, nothing could truly be “lost” for Li Fan.

Except for the changes in Li Fan himself.

Each time Huanzhen activated a simulation and returned to its anchored state, everything in the world was reset.

Even Li Fan’s physical strength and cultivation base were reset and needed Huanzhen’s cultivation inheritance function to restore them to their previous simulated state.

However, amidst all these resets, there existed one variable that constantly moved forward.

That was Li Fan’s mind and will!

Its reflection on Huanzhen’s panel appeared as the upper limit of Li Fan’s psychological age and Huanzhen’s default energy progress.

Yet neither of these had shown any changes for a long time…

At this moment, Li Fan felt an unprecedented hesitation in his heart.

Time ticked away second by second, yet Li Fan still hadn’t made his final decision.

From the branch simulation utilizing the Trident Technique, there were only ten hours left until his attempt at Xuanhuang Ascension. Li Fan’s expression became undefined as he stepped out and arrived at the origin of it all.

Da Xuan—that mundane mortal body’s house in his past life.

Although “Li Fan” had mysteriously disappeared, the study remained pristine, untouched as before. Clearly, that “sister-in-law” still clung to some faint hope for “Li Fan’s” return.

Li Fan lay on the bed and closed his eyes.

It felt like he had returned to the earliest moment he traversed this world.

Time seemed to pause in motion. Then, it was as if ice shattered—leaving it to flow silently.

One hundred cycles of reincarnation and all their experiences instantly replayed within Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.

Li Fan tried to use this method to uncover a possible breakthrough.

Day turned into night, as Li Fan lay quietly on the wooden bed.

It seemed as if he had fallen completely asleep.

Indeed, through Huanzhen’s repeated simulations, Li Fan could use the method of elimination to pinpoint the key to resolving the qualitative transformation.

This was undoubtedly the safest approach.

In theory, there was nothing wrong with it.

Yet every time Li Fan resolved to proceed this way, certain images inexplicably flashed through his spirit consciousness.

Scenes of Mo Rubing’s relentless pursuit of the truth beneath the flaws in the High Wall, disregarding his own life; and in the Illusion Array, the Celestial Doctor ultimately abandoning comprehension of the High Wall for the sake of the Heavenly Law Realm.

“A loss is forever lost.”

Within the darkness, Li Fan suddenly opened his eyes.

Over and over, he softly muttered these four words.
