My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1236 - 1188: Sudden Change of Fate
"Da Qi..."
The monk of Tai Yan Sect squinted his eyes, which seemed to flicker continuously with light and shadows.
"Da Xuan?"
"Eh?"
Not knowing what he saw, his tone became very surprised, then turned to look at Sun Erlang, "In just a few years, such a significant discrepancy has already appeared? What’s going on?"
Sun Erlang was utterly in the dark, not understanding what the other party was talking about.
"Interesting, follow me," the monk of Tai Yan Sect examined Sun Erlang more closely and then spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure suddenly became transparent.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
A silver illusion road formed under his feet, leading directly into the interior of the mountain.
Sun Erlang transformed into a fleeing light, closely following behind.
As they entered the mountain, the silver road also disappeared.
Even the pit that Sun Erlang had previously dug on the Taixuan Mountain was silently restored.
"My name is Yishu, the bones you sent back are of my clansman."
While walking, the Taiyan Sect Disciple spoke to Sun Erlang.
"Back then, faced with the simultaneous arrival of the ’Incompatible Cultivation’ and ’Immortal-Ordinary Miasma,’ my cousin made a rash retreat, seeking refuge in the Mortal Mini World. Although since then cut off from the Immortal Way, he also achieved the status of a Mortal Emperor. One could say it was fate."
"Thousands of years of absence, and the day we meet again would be under such circumstances. Although we had foreseen it when we parted, still..."
"Creation plays tricks on us!"
"A simulated illusion scene is indeed different from a real scenario."
Yishu sighed lightly and fell silent.
"Simulation? Real scenario?" Sun Erlang keenly caught the two key words in Yishu’s speech.
"This Taiyan Sect, known in ancient times for The Art of Deduction, when he mentioned simulation and discrepancy, could it be that they were deducing the future?"
As they continued deeper underground, when the scenery appeared again, it was already high in the sky above.
The azure sky was clear, below were rolling fertile fields stretching thousands of miles.
Sun Erlang could very clearly sense the multitude of mortal spirits here.
Meanwhile, Yishu continued to fly toward the front.
Sun Erlang quickly kept up, his mind suddenly filled with questions.
Since entering this small world, Yishu seemed to have undergone some changes.
But, for the moment, Sun Erlang couldn’t pinpoint exactly what the changes were.
"I haven’t sensed any danger, and certainly, my master wouldn’t harm me..." Sun Erlang suppressed the odd feeling in his heart and continued to follow.
Before long, Sun Erlang’s originally empty field of vision suddenly revealed a Floating Sky City.
The city’s perimeter was enveloped in a transparent crystal wall. It was because of this crystal wall that Sun Erlang had not noticed this city in the sky earlier.
"Truly a crafty technique, to completely isolate such a big city," Sun Erlang thought to himself.
Yishu finally spoke again, "The Tai Xuan Realm was originally borrowed by our Taiyan Sect. Immortals and mortals are separated, and in order not to disturb the mortals of this realm, we built this crystal wall."
Sun Erlang was somewhat skeptical about Yishu’s claim of not disturbing the mortals.
However, he did not voice any opposition, merely nodding slightly.
Passing through the transparent crystal wall, they officially entered the Taiyan Sect.
The moment his feet touched the ground, Sun Erlang suddenly felt as if countless eyes were all looking at him at once.
Among them were not lacking the presences of Unity Path Experts.
Sun Erlang quietly felt alarmed, "The strength of the Taiyan Sect is preserved too well. How can there still be so many monks? How do they deal with the issue of incompatible cultivation?"
As he ventured deeper into the Floating Sky City, the strange feeling in Sun Erlang’s heart grew stronger.
"It’s too quiet here. It doesn’t feel like a vibrant, bustling city at all."
"And…"
Sun Erlang paused in his steps.
He finally realized where the anomaly he felt in his heart was coming from.
The monks of the Taiyan Sect here were just like the Tree People in the Spirit Tree Realm. Although they bore different faces, they all emitted the same aura.
It was as if they were countless bodies of the same person!
Although Sun Erlang was startled, he didn’t allow himself to indulge in wild thoughts and directly asked, "Elder Yi, your Taiyan Sect…"
Yishu, seeming to perceive the doubts in Sun Erlang’s heart, smiled, "After you meet Brother Chen, you will know everything. But rest assured, Young Man, our Taiyan Sect has always been clear about gratitude and grudges. By returning the remains of the Taiyan Sect disciples, you are considered to have shown a favor to our sect."
"Although the alliance you speak of might not be achievable, you don’t need to worry about your own safety."
Sun Erlang neither agreed nor disagreed and swallowed back the words that had almost reached his lips.
Following Yishu to the center of the Suspended City, they entered a building made of blue transparent crystal.
It was as if he saw countless versions of himself entering at the same time. When Sun Erlang regained his consciousness from the illusion, a long-haired, handsome man suddenly stood in front of him.
"Brother Chen," Yishu bowed his hands in greeting.
"Yi Xing also went to the Da Xuan Minor World to carry out a sect mission. At that time, because of his lack of talent, he was never allowed to enter the inner gate for cultivation, and he always held a grudge…"
"Now, as times and circumstances have changed, what are inner gates and outer gates? They’ve long become a joke. Let Yi Xing come back,"
Brother Chen, who was Chen Tianhai that Li Fan had once met from the Taiyan Sect, spoke in an even tone.
"Thank you, Brother," said Yishu, bowing solemnly.
Then his figure blurred, turned into blue starlight, and disappeared.
Chen Tianhai then turned his attention to Sun Erlang.
He said something astonishing, "According to the original trajectory, you, Sun Erlang, after several fruitless attempts to seek the Immortal Way at Dissociative Mountain, would settle down, marry, and have children. Seven years later, dissatisfied with the excessive demands of the new magistrate, you would kill in anger. Afterwards, you and your companion, Wang Xuanba, would take over the mountain and become kings, bringing disaster to the local area."
"Creating chaos for over a decade, eventually, you would be exterminated by the Imperial Army. You and Wang Xuanba would fight to the death without surrendering and get cut to pieces by random swords."
Listening to the other party describe his "fate," Sun Erlang couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
"But now, everything is different."
"Your future…"
Chen Tianhai’s figure began to turn a vivid shade of blue, becoming ethereal.
After just a moment, he returned to his original form.
"Amazing! Beyond the variables!"
"Da Qi of the Holy Dynasty, huh..." Chen Tianhai’s eyes sparkled with a strange light.
"In just a few short years, you’ve caused such a significant deviation," he muttered to himself, seemingly discovering something incredibly exciting.
"Do you know about the origins of your master?" Chen Tianhai asked.
Sun Erlang simply watched Chen Tianhai quietly.
"That’s right, don’t say you don’t know. Even if you did know, you probably wouldn’t say it, or couldn’t say it," Chen Tianhai said with an inexplicable smile.
Sun Erlang suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart.
"Wait, wait, the cultivation technique you practice…" Chen Tianhai, observing Sun Erlang, suddenly changed his tone, somewhat uncertain.
"Is it the [Sitting Mountain Secret] of the Shenmu Sect?"
