My Longevity Simulation
chapter-431

It wasn’t that Li Chenfeng had stopped flying.

Rather, between him and Li Fan, an uncrossable chasm seemed to appear out of thin air.

Though close in proximity, they were worlds apart. No matter how enraged Li Chenfeng became, no matter how rapidly the two pairs of wings on his back flapped,

He couldn’t escape this invisible cage.

The Two-Yi Dust Array!

Although Li Fan had only set up a simplified version, it was more than enough to contain Li Chenfeng, who was only at the Qi Refinement stage and relied on his formidable physique combined with his beastly transformation.

“The Binding Insect actually failed.” Li Fan looked at Li Chenfeng, whose face was contorted with rage, with a look of great interest.

Taking a step forward, Li Fan’s figure instantly appeared within the array, behind Li Chenfeng.

Before Li Chenfeng could react, Li Fan swung his Great Five Element Annihilation Sword, slicing off a large piece of the armor-like keratin from one half of Li Chenfeng’s body.

Li Chenfeng let out a painful and furious howl, about to retaliate, but Li Fan had already left the Two-Yi Dust Array, making his attack go astray.

Ignoring Li Chenfeng’s resentful roar, Li Fan held the keratin he had cut off, examining it carefully.

It was still warm to the touch, but the texture was remarkably hard.

Li Fan controlled the spiritual energy within his body, condensing a Water Blade and shooting it at the keratin.

“Clang!”

After a crisp sound, the Water Blade was actually deflected.

The keratin only had a faint, shallow mark, and it quickly disappeared as the flesh around the edge of the keratin squirmed.

“Comparable to the attack of a normal Golden Core mid-stage cultivator, it can’t even break through the defense.” Li Fan was somewhat surprised.

“It’s still very active, and it seems to have its own independent consciousness. Perhaps if it’s given enough nutrition and time, it could grow into another complete body.”

He had never seen anything like it before. This time, Li Fan’s gaze towards Li Chenfeng and the others was completely different.

“The small world that can control one hundred thousand Realm Breaking Whales, it’s not going to be that simple.”

“Now, let me see how far your empire has developed.”

Li Fan’s divine sense suddenly enveloped Li Chenfeng and the other three.

Cloud Water Dream Technique, activate!

Li Chenfeng, who was still struggling, instantly fell silent.

The keratin layer of the external beast slowly receded, returning to his original harmless, handsome young man appearance.

His eyes were closed, and his facial expressions kept changing.

On the other hand, the Foundation Establishment Master and the man with the surname Xiao were already immersed in beautiful dreams, unable to extricate themselves.

Time slowly passed.

Three days later, Li Chenfeng finally let down his guard and all three of them showed contented smiles.

Li Fan slowly opened his eyes.

“This is…”

A hint of confusion flashed through his mind.

The small world where Li Chenfeng was located was a unique world with only an endless ocean.

There were no islands in the ocean.

Only giant Sky-Supporting Turtles, with humans living on their backs, constantly swimming through the ocean.

In the sky, a massive corpse of a Three-Headed Divine Bird floated.

It occupied almost one-third of the sky.

The Three-Headed Divine Bird had been dead for an unknown number of years, but its corpse remained incorruptible.

Originally, various kinds of strange beasts gathered on it, feeding on the corpse of the Three-Headed Divine Bird.

Many years ago, a peerless genius appeared in one of the human tribes on a Sky-Supporting Turtle.

He mastered the ability to control beasts and selflessly passed it on to other human tribes.

Under his leadership, humans successfully defeated the beasts that had been entrenched on the corpse of the Three-Headed Divine Bird.

From then on, they established a unified human empire on the corpse of the Divine Bird.

After thousands of years of development, the empire had reached its peak in terms of the development and utilization of beasts.

Beasts had permeated every aspect of the empire’s human society.

People could conveniently take a newly bred hybrid beast, the Wide-Back Peng, to travel around the world.

They could also tame beasts to hunt in the ocean, the sky, and even beyond the small world, in the void.

The empire had even developed a technology that combined the power of beasts with humans.

This was the Beast God Armor that Li Chenfeng was wearing.

However, even with so many achievements, a shadow always lingered over the empire.

It made the empire’s humans uneasy.

Because the Three-Headed Divine Bird they regarded as a god did not die a natural death.

It didn’t even have only three heads before its death.

The so-called Three-Headed Divine Bird should have been a Nine-Headed Bird.

This terrifying existence, which the empire’s people couldn’t even imagine, had its six heads brutally cut off by someone.

Then it was thrown here to die.

The empire’s people were not completely unaware of the culprit.

They knew that it was called a Immortal.

Legends still circulated among the tribes about the Immortal who banished their ancestors here.

The empire’s people felt both fear and longing for the Immortal.

Because although the empire was very developed, they still couldn’t solve the problem of human lifespan.

In the empire, those who could live for a hundred years were already considered extremely long-lived.

Therefore, they coveted the Immortal arts, which were rumored to possess both powerful strength and the ability to prolong life.

After countless attempts that cost many lives, the empire’s pioneers finally crossed the Xian-Banishing Array and came to the Xuanhuang Realm.

Unfortunately, the news they found out was disappointing.

To cultivate Xian arts, one must have spiritual energy.

The world where the empire was located did not have the so-called spiritual energy.

Moreover, there was a restriction that prohibited the simultaneous cultivation of different arts.

For the empire’s people, who found it incredibly difficult to even obtain a single Immortal cultivation technique, cultivating immortality seemed like an unattainable dream.

But the tenacious empire’s people did not give up.

Instead, they continuously sent people to infiltrate the Xuanhuang Realm to gather more information.

At the same time, they formed think tanks to study possible methods of cultivating immortality.

Thus, through the efforts of generations, a plan that seemed like a fantasy was proposed.

First, there was the issue of spiritual energy.

The solution to this problem was purely accidental.

The empire’s holy land, where the head of the Divine Bird was located.

At the point where the six heads were severed, there were still traces of the sword that had once slain the Divine Bird.

This sword was incredibly powerful.

For thousands of years, the sword energy continued unabated, suppressing the vengeful spirit of the Nine-Headed Bird.

All beasts would sense it and instinctively avoid the sword energy.

Once, an empire citizen violated the law and visited the sword mark, secretly bringing his pet beast with him.

Unexpectedly, he triggered the sword energy.

The citizen was unharmed, but the sword energy instantly killed the beast.

While the empire’s guard captured the citizen, they accidentally discovered that a luminous crystal core remained from the beast that should have been turned into nothingness by the sword energy.

If they hadn’t had contact with the Xuanhuang Realm before, the empire’s people might not have known what this crystal core was.

However, those who had once practiced Dao arts were shocked to discover that the energy in this crystal core could actually replace spiritual energy for their cultivation.

Later, through the empire’s research, they found that only some beast species had crystal cores.

Fortunately, a species called the Flying Sphere Beast bred extremely quickly and was easy to tame.

After the first large-scale breeding, the empire harvested hundreds of thousands of crystal cores.

Among them, they discovered a mutated, refined version.

A Qi Refinement early-stage Dao practitioner successfully broke through to Qi Refinement Perfection with the help of these crystal cores.

Unfortunately, due to the restrictions of Immortal art cultivation, they couldn’t progress further.

However, even so, it gave the empire a glimmer of hope for cultivating immortality.

The next problem to solve was the need for various mediums for cultivating Immortal arts and the restriction against cultivating different arts simultaneously.
