My Longevity Simulation
chapter-315

As Zhang Zhiliang said, after studying in the Huna Yu Courtyard for a long time, Li Fan had a good understanding of how to construct the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation.

But as for how powerful this constructed Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation actually was, Li Fan wasn't very clear. He lacked quantitative understanding.

It was like how the workers on a weapon production line might not fully understand the lethality of the objects they manufactured.

Initially, Li Fan thought that the main purpose of constructing the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation was to mark the Five Elders Association cultivators who infiltrated the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

But with Zhang Zhiliang's reminder, Li Fan realized that perhaps the true purpose was far greater than that.

The Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation was indeed extremely effective in distinguishing between enemy and ally cultivators.

But if it was just for this purpose, it would be overkill.

It should be noted that according to the current construction plan, a Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation would be built in every province of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

The quantity of materials required was immense.

Even if the number of Five Elders Association spies doubled, the losses caused by them combined might not be more valuable than these materials.

Not to mention those remote areas of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, where infiltration was almost meaningless.

However, Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formations were to be built everywhere without exception for comprehensive prevention.

...

Cleaning up spies was one aspect, but achieving a high degree of control over one's own territory was the crucial aspect.

Under the coverage of the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation, once a cultivator from the Five Elders Association entered, they would be marked.

This actually meant that everything in the formation was under constant surveillance.

The first time Li Fan saw the Tianxuan Mirror, he had done a test.

After learning about the disappearance of the Liuli Fish on Liuli Island, he first bought a batch of Liuli Beads at the original price and then sold this news to the Tianxuan Mirror.

Afterward, the price of Liuli Beads skyrocketed, and he made a small profit from it.

This also confirmed that the Tianxuan Mirror was not an all-knowing entity. It couldn't know everything that happened outside of the Ten Thousand Immortals Island.

With [Truth] on his body, Li Fan had intentionally avoided the Tianxuan Mirror's surveillance many times to ensure that his secrets were not discovered.

But if the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation was established...

The Tianxuan Mirror would compensate for this flaw.

Perhaps all of Li Fan's small actions would be unable to escape its scrutiny.

Thinking how all his future actions would be under the constant surveillance of the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

He even maliciously speculated whether the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would establish a special organization.

Once they noticed any abnormal behavior from a cultivator, they would send members of this organization to deal with it.

In this way, perhaps all unstable factors would be eliminated.

"It seems that whether to rely on the Spirit Mist Grass to profit in the next life needs to be reconsidered."

"Although it can make me rich overnight, the impact and changes brought about by a war are too great. Especially with this Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation; once it is completed, I am afraid it will be very difficult for me to maintain my secrets."

Thinking about this, Li Fan had shot himself in the foot.

"No wonder the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's determination to construct the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation this time is so strong, even bringing back those of us who have already been eliminated..."

"But the popularization of the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation in this world is already an irreversible trend. In the future, I can only be more careful in my actions and never expose any abnormalities."

"If things really go south, I'll use [Truth] immediately. Anyways, now that I have broken through to the Golden Core realm, I can still retain my cultivation after."

Li Fan sighed in his heart and continued to read the jade slip left by Zhang Zhiliang.

As soon as Zhang Zhiliang saw the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation, he immediately realized the power of the formation and thus felt fearful.

At the same time, he was inspired.

The combination of formations and the Tianxuan Mirror was indeed feasible.

Wanting to possess the Tianxuan Mirror was obviously absurd.

So, what kind of treasure could serve as a substitute for the Tianxuan Mirror and act as the core of the Infinite Formation?

After a series of searches, Zhang Zhiliang found the answer.

The Tianxuan Mirror's secondary body.

If the newborn mirror was the Tianxuan Mirror's newly created incarnation, then the secondary body was a completely new offspring created from the Tianxuan Mirror.

The newborn mirror, as the Tianxuan Mirror's incarnation, always maintained a connection with the main body.

In contrast, the secondary body could be regarded as a completely independent individual.

From birth, it had no connection with the Tianxuan Mirror. Furthermore, it would inherit some of the Tianxuan Mirror's characteristics.

As a substitute for the Tianxuan Mirror, it couldn't be more suitable.

The Tianxuan Mirror was out of reach, but its secondary body could be plotted for.

Over the long years, the Tianxuan Mirror had given birth to dozens of secondary bodies.

Their actual functions varied, and they were often bestowed upon cultivators who had made outstanding contributions to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

For example, there was a kind of secondary body called "Xuanqing Mirror."

The Xuanqing Mirror stored all the knowledge and information that existed in the Tianxuan Mirror before it was detached.

Although it couldn't synchronize with any new information generated in the Tianxuan Mirror after its birth, it was still an immense existence that encompassed everything and couldn't be comprehended by a cultivator in their lifetime.

In Zhang Zhiliang's conjecture, there was bound to be one or even several secondary bodies that had inherited the terrifying computational power of the Tianxuan Mirror.

As long as one of these was obtained, the birth of the true Infinite Formation was not far away.

Even if he settled for second best, any secondary body would be enough to support the rudimentary form of the Infinite Formation.

...

"Tianxuan Mirror's secondary body..."

"With dozens in existence, if one was determined to obtain one, it might not be impossible to succeed."

Li Fan's eyes flickered slightly.

After this, Zhang Zhiliang's specific insights into the Infinite Formation followed.

Indeed, it was much more profound than before.

The formation's self-evolution program was further optimized, greatly increasing efficiency.

While cultivating, Li Fan continued to review the construction of the Tianxuan Spirit Lock Formation and studied the Infinite Formation.

Time passed quietly, and soon it was the day of Li Fan's group assessment.

Following Ji Hongdao's guidance, Li Fan was teleported to a vast and empty space.

A black storage ring fell into his palm, filled with formation materials.

Not far away, the formation core containing the newborn mirror floated quietly in the air.

At the same time, a red timer appeared above his head, representing the assessment time.

Li Fan took a deep breath, steadied his mind, took out the materials from the storage ring, and began his formation construction.

With the assistance of the Divine Transformation Dao, Li Fan's formation construction technique was extremely precise.

His speed was astonishingly fast, and after a short period of adaptation, his efficiency soared.

In just two and a half days, he completed the construction of the central core area of the formation.

Next, he had to perfectly embed the formation core into the core formation area.

However, Li Fan encountered difficulties at this step.
