My Longevity Simulation

Chapter 58: Understanding the Aura of Heaven and Earth

Li Fan had been trapped in the Qi Condensation stage for several years, unable to make any progress.

After cultivating both of his techniques to the Qi Condensation stage, he still couldn't find the key to his own destiny.

At this moment, as Li Fan looked at the Canghai Pearl, he suddenly sensed an opportunity to break through from the depths of his consciousness.

That was, as before, to perceive and understand the Canghai Pearl.

Li Fan was naturally aware of how dangerous this was; it was essentially tantamount to walking towards death.

In "Miscellaneous Records of Cultivation," there were many records of cultivators sensing their own destiny.

Although there were certain risks, opportunities also coexisted with them.

Why didn't he sense it before, but it suddenly appeared now?

Li Fan instantly understood.

"Venerable Heart Refinement Mantra."

Perhaps operating the "Venerable Heart Refinement Mantra" could help Li Fan resist the assimilation of the Canghai Pearl's will.

A decision was made.

Li Fan held the Canghai Pearl with both hands, and slightly lowered it to his dantian.

Cross-legged, "Jade Cosmos Thousand Variations Sutra" and "Venerable Heart Refinement Mantra" operated simultaneously.

Initially, it was a bit uncomfortable for Li Fan to multitask.

But since the Venerable Heart Refinement Mantra didn't involve the operation of spiritual energy, only tempering the mind, there was no conflict between the two techniques.

After hundreds of attempts, Li Fan gradually mastered the method of running both techniques at the same time.

His mind felt a bit absent as if he had turned into the vast sea, watching the changes in the world from that perspective.

Sunrises and sunsets, the rotation of stars, clouds drifting and rain dissipating.

All of this accelerated thousands of times, quickly flashing before Li Fan's eyes.

With a single thought, it felt like he had passed through hundreds of years.

A sense of ancient, ancient, and desolate aura gradually permeated Li Fan's consciousness.

He began to get used to seeing the world from the perspective of the ocean.

He began to gradually forget that he was a human.

At this moment, a cool breath suddenly surged.

It was like a clear spring in the mountains, slowly washing away the mottled marks of time.

Li Fan gradually regained his consciousness.

"It really worked."

Confirming his speculation, Li Fan was neither sad nor happy.

Although the Venerable Heart Refinement Mantra could reduce the assimilation of the Canghai's will to some extent, compared to the Canghai's will, he was still too insignificant.

The consumption of lifespan remained many times that of normal cultivation, and emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and joy were infinitely diluted.

Of course, there were advantages.

At this moment, he could already mobilize a trace of the Canghai Pearl's power.

His divine sense was strengthened a thousandfold, gently moving, easily covering the entire Taian Island.

Without stopping, Li Fan's consciousness spread rapidly like ripples.

He saw one extinct island after another in his mind.

Through his divine sense, he saw that under one of the islands, a volcano that had already been extinguished was reignited due to the influence of the scorching disaster.

He saw, not far from Liuli Island, a giant fishbone lying among numerous human corpses. In the center of the fishbone, a huge glass bead was shining in the sunlight.

He saw that in various hidden corners of the Cong Yun Sea, there were still several cultivators whom he thought were already extinct.

He saw many secrets hidden in various corners of the Cong Yun Sea that would only be revealed in the face of such an apocalypse.

...

However, all of this was irrelevant to him.

There was no greed in his heart.

His divine sense quickly retracted, and he activated the Canghai Pearl, drawing in the residual water vapor between the heavens and the earth in the Cong Yun Sea, converging it above Taian Island.

Thus, the surviving humans on Taian Island saw the gradually forming dark clouds in the sky.

"Boom!"

With the onset of heavy rain, people wept tears of joy.

They embraced each other and rolled in the rain.

The heavy rain lasted for half an hour.

There was still a faint trace of clouds remaining above Taian Island. This was manipulated by Li Fan; every half month, he would spontaneously extract the moisture from the Cong Yun Sea using the Canghai Pearl to bring rain to Taian Island.

This ensured the survival of the island's inhabitants.

After doing all this, Li Fan looked at the sky quietly.

The reason he had no greed for the many hidden treasures in the Cong Yun Sea was not because he suddenly became extraordinary, but because he had found something more worthy of pursuit.

An opportunity to connect with the will of heaven and earth.

The most ideal state of the "Jade Cosmos Thousand Variations Sutra" was to sense and refine the aura of Heaven and Earth.

The aura of Heaven and Earth, as the external manifestation of the will of heaven and earth, was immense.

When an ordinary cultivator comes into contact with it, a slight mistake would lead to a rapid depletion of lifespan, like what happened to Li Fan before.

Losing one's self and becoming a puppet of the heavenly Dao was quite common.

But Li Fan now had such a rare opportunity: to come into contact with the will of heaven and earth while retaining his own consciousness.

Because he was no longer just an ordinary Qi Condensation stage cultivator.

A part of his consciousness was already connected to the Canghai Pearl.

To speculate on the heavens and earth as a cultivator was like seeking a dead end.

However, speculating on the heavens and earth using the Canghai Pearl might not be a dead end.

Li Fan's excitement began to grow.

This was the true way to find the Dao!

He transformed into the Canghai and silently observed this world, feeling the various spiritual energy flows circulating between heaven and earth, feeling the will of the heavens and earth.

One year, two years...

The passage of time was no longer important to Li Fan.

The more he gazed at the sky, the more insights he gained.

His previous notions were overturned one by one.

He thought that the pervasive killing intent in the Cong Yun Sea had gradually disappeared.

But now he realized that the killing intent of heaven and earth had never diminished and still existed.

The wild killing intent he sensed before was not from the will of the heavenly Dao itself.

The killing intent of the heavens and earth would not be detected by ordinary cultivators.

It wasn't violent, angry, or filled with emotions.

It was just a pure will, a pure rule.

It was the impartiality of the heavens and earth, treating all living beings as mere ants.

In its eyes, mortals, cultivators, and the Cong Yun Sea...

There was no difference.

Cultivators plundered the heavens and earth, and the heavenly will generated killing intent.

However, the heavenly will would not directly intervene, because cultivators themselves were also part of the heavenly way.

Instead, corresponding rules would be set in response.

For example, cultivation techniques couldn't be cultivated simultaneously.

And more...

What Li Fan saw at this moment.

In the sky above the Cong Yun Sea, a transparent crimson figure looked down coldly.

In their hand, a small flame was constantly flickering.

Roasting the Cong Yun Sea.

Sensing Li Fan's gaze, the crimson figure turned its head, locking eyes with Li Fan.

The seawater in the Canghai Pearl boiled in an instant.

Fortunately, it only took a glance and then retracted its gaze.

Li Fan's consciousness was preserved.

Because of this glance, Li Fan also understood its identity.

The Heavenly Spirit: Crimson Flame!
