My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1668 - 1390: Refining the Great Medicine of Heaven and Earth_2
The moment this sun appeared, it was as if the Xuanhuang Realm transitioned from winter into spring and summer.
An unusual vitality surged forth from that mysterious character, quietly flowing to every corner of the Xuanhuang Realm.
This was precisely the [㬃] character that Li Fan learned from the Immortal Boat!
As the sun rose in the east, the energy resonated, and all things came back to life!
Under Li Fan’s precise input and adjustment, the power of the 㬃 character was just right. It was as if the Xuanhuang Realm had ingested a potent elixir. Li Fan could clearly see the various wonders emanating from the flourishing vitality across the world.
Li Fan did not pause.
He drew forth even more vitality from the Star Sea Rift Valley.
The two sources, though both vitality, were fundamentally different.
The vitality of the 㬃 character was external to internal, passively triggered. Mismanagement, however slight, could be akin to playing with fire, turning vitality into a graveyard.
The vitality from the Rift Valley, on the other hand, was internal to external, subtle and silent. No matter how much was drawn, even if it surpassed its limits momentarily, it would only be stored without harming itself. Its drawback, however, was its slow pace, requiring gradual effort.
Two kinds of vitality—one yin, one yang—complemented each other.
Under Li Fan’s secret manipulation, they slowly merged into the Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth.
The skies of the Xuanhuang Realm seemed to grow even clearer.
As the 㬃 character in the sky dissipated, the vast amount of spiritual energy drawn by Li Fan dispersed and returned to different places.
Through Li Fan’s actions, the deficit accumulated over millennia from cultivators draining the Xuanhuang Realm was completely replenished.
Between heaven and earth, the scorching vitality was almost visible to the naked eye.
All things thrived, competing in their brilliance!
However, Li Fan’s alchemy continued unabated.
"Adapt to the timing and strike while the iron is hot!"
As vitality flourished within the Xuanhuang Realm, various changes naturally arose.
The birth of living beings inside the realm was of no consequence. What mattered were the slow evolutions of numerous Cave Heavens.
With the arrival of vitality, it was as if flowers blossomed and bore fruit, nurturing new Cave Heavens—it was only natural.
Yet each Cave Heaven’s nurturing would inevitably siphon some energy away from the Xuanhuang Realm itself. With Li Fan intending to refine a grand elixir from the Xuanhuang Realm, how could he allow this to happen?
Just as he had previously severed the nascent Five Elements Great Cave Heaven.
Where Li Fan’s gaze fell, countless Cave Heavens turned to dust, transforming into nourishment to be reintegrated into the Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth.
Explosive booms repeatedly echoed.
The Heavenly Dao of the Xuanhuang Realm did not reprimand Li Fan for destroying the Cave Heavens.
On the contrary, faint feelings of joy emanated.
It was clear that the Heavenly Dao itself resented the countless Cave Heavens it had birthed, though limited by its nature, it could only leave them be.
Now that Li Fan intervened to clear out those "parasites," it was more than willing!
Li Fan paid no heed to the increasingly ingratiating sentiments coming from the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao, remaining calm as he observed the world.
Things were far from as optimistic as the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao appeared.
Within the Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth, an eruption of vitality on such a scale triggered the evolution of Cave Heavens as a form of release, but this outlet had been mercilessly severed by Li Fan.
The result was that the Xuanhuang Realm had no choice but to forcibly absorb all the vitality.
Swelling larger and larger.
And larger...
Until finally...
A thunderous boom—an explosive rupture!
It was akin to a furnace exploding during alchemy due to adding ingredients without managing the heat.
Of course, Li Fan would not let such a thing happen.
Before the Xuanhuang Realm could burst from the surging vitality, he would decisively initiate his plan for ascension.
Though the vitality was abundant now, as long as the Xuanhuang Realm "ascended" a bit in its momentum, the vitality would be rapidly consumed—not nearly enough!
"Under high pressure, supplementary materials are recommended."
Li Fan observed for a moment to ensure the Xuanhuang Realm had settled into temporary equilibrium.
Then, with a flash, he arrived at Luoyan State.
This was once a part of the Heavenly Law Realm, now silently planted into the Xuanhuang Realm by the Heavenly Physician.
The resistance between the two worlds had subsided. Their fusion was nearing complete integration.
Li Fan lightly stepped on the ground, and out flew a figure from the hidden Grand Array of Xuanhuang Beings beneath the earth.
This figure was one of the Integration Cultivators previously selected as a medicinal lead.
"Residual Realm as medicine, infused into Xuanhuang."
Li Fan chanted softly, his figure seeming to rise endlessly.
He had already laid down an Ascension Array.
Yet he did not employ the Divine Technique of Nine Heavens Dustfall Finger, instead, from his elevated vantage, he retrieved a World Fragment obtained from the Ruined World The Wall.
From Li Fan’s perspective now, the Xuanhuang Realm appeared no larger than a common person.
Whereas the World Fragment resembled a medicinal pill.
He lightly pinched it and slowly pressed it into the body of the Xuanhuang Realm.
At his elevated momentum, Li Fan’s aura caused all living beings within the Xuanhuang Realm to tremble even in their sleep.
Even the Xuanhuang Realm itself dared not send even a favorable thought.
It could only cooperate obediently.
It was as though Li Fan had awakened some ancient memory within it.
With utmost caution, he successfully implanted the World Fragment.
Li Fan’s momentum then dropped sharply.
"Go!"
He gently pointed at the Integration Cultivator beside him.
The cultivator exploded uncontrollably.
Instead of blood and flesh scattering, it was as though a phantom of the Essence of Heaven and Earth expanded tens of millions of times in an instant.
Forming a thin membrane that enveloped the World Fragment Li Fan had planted layer by layer.
"Rotate!"
Li Fan uttered another low command.
Illusions of swirling light rapidly circulated within the phantom membrane.
Through the power of the Immortal Array, Li Fan helped the phantom membrane digest and absorb the World Fragment it enveloped!
A World Fragment that had persisted through millennia of tribulation.
Now, at this moment, it transformed into streams of flowing light, flooding into the phantom membrane.
Yet it was not the end.
Merely an intermediary stage.
Above in the sky, phenomena marking the Integration Cultivator’s demise began to manifest.
However, unlike ordinary instances, these phenomena manifested exceedingly slowly.
Their duration was also unusually long.
As the phenomena persisted, the Integration Cultivator’s process of Returning to the heavens progressed simultaneously.
When the phenomena finally vanished entirely, it signaled the complete digestion of the World Fragment by the Xuanhuang Realm.
This was Li Fan’s method—using Integration Cultivators as medicinal leads, buffering, and World Fragments as medicine to supplement the Xuanhuang Realm!
The methodology was learned from the Heavenly Physician.
Yet without a doubt, it had surpassed its origin and excelled!
Despite the buffering provided by the Integration Cultivators, this method remained excessively intense compared to allowing the Xuanhuang Realm to gradually absorb the vitality. If the Xuanhuang Realm had been in its previously weak state, it would have been unsustainable.
Only through this lifetime of Li Fan’s countless measures strengthening the Xuanhuang Realm’s constitution could such a prescription be executed!
This was merely a prerequisite.
Not to mention the compatibility between the World Fragment and the Xuanhuang Realm. Even acquiring a suitable fragment from the Ruined World The Wall was no easy feat. Reckless extraction of a fragment would destabilize the wall itself. Action must be taken at the opportune moment.
