My Simulated Road to Immortality
Chapter 851 - 809: Refining Magic Treasure with Spirit Tree (7000 Monthly Votes Additional Release)

"I can’t help but feel there’s something eerie about this place," Shang Tianci muttered softly.

Li Fan also sensed an unusual aura within this valley.

Tianyang took a leap forward, shielding him with his body.

Li Fan followed behind, carefully observing his surroundings.

The valley floor, situated beneath towering mountains a thousand feet high, was perpetually devoid of sunlight and shrouded in miasma.

The flora and fauna that lived here were also unlike those found on Taixu Mountain.

It was almost as if they had abruptly entered another world.

"This miasma can actually interfere with spiritual senses," he realized.

Walking through the valley, they tread cautiously, their vision obstructed and their spiritual senses unable to fully discern the area.

After going forward for a short distance, Shang Tianci suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"The tinkling sound is gone."

He briskly turned his head around.

After pondering for a moment, Li Fan, guided by the warning sounds from [Mystic Annihilating], delineated a rough area within the valley.

It was merely thirty feet in diameter, there was nothing hidden from view.

But evidently, there was no trace of the Mystic Sky Sect remnants they suspected.

"Hmm?"

Li Fan and Shang Tianci exchanged glances.

Spiritual energy burst forth, eradicating all the weeds and animals in the area.

After removing a thick layer of mud, a smooth stone tablet was revealed.

"What is this?"

Li Fan touched the stone tablet, feeling a sense of familiarity.

After a brief instant, he recalled it—not from the current Xuanhuang World, but from the scene in the Fallen Immortal Realm, the "Ningyuan Life Fruit".

It was similar to the stone tablet he had seen in the modest dwelling of Mr. Bai in Ningyuan City.

The blue light of the Transformation Stone flickered in his memory, bringing back that moment.

Li Fan’s expression became somewhat curious.

These two stone tablets weren’t just highly similar.

They were identical.

"Immortal Stone Tablet."

"Could it be..." A guess began to form in Li Fan’s mind.

He instructed Tianyang to lift the stone tablet while he swiftly retreated to safety.

Only when Tianyang had entered the underground secret chamber, looked around, and returned to indicate there was no danger,

did Li Fan then leap down into it.

The scene was not much different from the one he remembered.

In a not too spacious area, a faceless stone statue stood erect against the wall.

Perhaps due to the isolation provided by the Immortal Stone Tablet, the long brown wooden table in the center, despite the passage of thousands of years,

still appeared no different from what it had been back then.

Even the air still carried a faint trace of the smell of blood.

The wooden box at the corner of the table, the transparent earthen jars lined along the wall,

and the twenty-eight sets of [Beast Species] bones buried in the corner of the room.

All of this unmistakably confirmed that this was the very same underground secret chamber in Mr. Bai’s house that Li Fan once visited in the Fallen Immortal Realm!

An object from the Fallen Immortal Realm had inexplicably appeared right before his eyes.

This discovery suddenly filled Li Fan with a sense of the absurdity of space-time transformation and intersection.

"Could it be that Taixu Mountain used to be Ningyuan City?"

"In that case, is the Violet Firmament Sect located not far from here?"

Li Fan’s gaze flickered as he rapidly cross-referenced the information with what Ximen Yu had written in the "Ancient and Modern Geography".

"It doesn’t match up."

After a short while, Li Fan frowned slightly.

According to the intelligence from Jiao Xiuyuan in his previous life, the relics of the Violet Firmament Sect were now situated in Linnang Province, at the heart of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

```

Far from this place.

Yet, back then, Ningyuan City lay within the domain of the Violet Firmament Sect. It couldn’t have been more than ten thousand miles away.

"It seems that Ximen Yu’s ’Ancient and Modern Geography’ contains an error," Li Fan mused.

"But it’s not his fault. Who could have foresaw that within the same state, after thousands of years, they would end up in completely different places?"

"It can’t be explained by mere changes in landscapes. It’s as if someone intentionally cut it apart and separated them."

Li Fan had known that the present Xuanhuang World was formed from the fusion of the Xuan Huang Mainland with several other worlds.

"Now it seems that in addition to fusion, there has been transformation," he noted.

"What exactly was Celestial Dharma Bearer’s intention?"

"At the end of the 115th era, after being obliterated by a True Immortal’s glance and the earth-shattering roar that followed, could it really have been Celestial Dharma Bearer who let it out?"

"It appears the Xuanhuang World has some special significance to Him."

...

As his thoughts slowly calmed. To be cautious, Li Fan ordered Tianyang to dig three feet into the ground at this site to ensure that nothing was overlooked.

"This Faceless Xuantian God Statue is made entirely from Immortal Stone. It is quite valuable."

"However, rather than selling it, it would be better to use it as a facade for the [United Federation of All Realms]. After all, under the heavens, this might be the only Xuantian God Statue left."

Li Fan then thought about the Mystical Sky Sect King still slumbering beneath the Violet Firmament Sect.

"Perhaps, it can have an unexpected effect," he pondered.

After storing away the statue, the sensation from the Mystic Annihilating Secret Technique also subsided to calm.

"Senior, what is that statue? It looks a bit eerie," Shang Tianci couldn’t help but ask.

"This is related to ancient secrets. History so remote it even predates Celestial Dharma Bearer’s rise. You will know in time," Li Fan replied, with a mysterious smile that told half and hid half, successfully piquing Shang Tianci’s interest.

Before leaving, Li Fan, moved by a sudden thought, simply cut out the entire underground secret chamber and took it with him.

Which left Shang Tianci speechless with astonishment.

Li Fan, unconcerned, afterwards returned to the Spirit Tree Realm with Shang Tianci.

On their journey crossing the borders of state regions, they encountered cultivator patrols. Fortunately, with Li Fan’s [One-Handed Sky Shrouding Technique], they went unnoticed.

"Little Shang, what do you think of this place?" Li Fan asked, standing at the pinnacle of the Spirit Tree and addressing Shang Tianci beside him.

"It’s good, but a little..."

"Ordinary."

After some hesitation, Shang Tianci found the word he was looking for.

"Indeed. It’s almost an endless plain with few magnificent mountains or rivers. Compared with the spectacle-rich Xuanhuang World, there’s no contest. Therefore, it will be up to you now," Li Fan said earnestly.

"Ah?" Shang Tianci was taken aback, clearly not grasping Li Fan’s implication.

"Isn’t your Gold Purple Gourd capable of materializing scenes of wonder from Xuanhuang? Begin to realize them here in the Spirit Tree Realm, one by one. Even if they can’t match the original scale, it doesn’t matter."

"Recreate Xuanhuang within this Small World!"

"Imagine, when newcomers arrive. The first thing they see is the landscapes identical to those of the Xuanhuang World!"

"How astounding that would be!"

Li Fan murmured on.

And so Shang Tianci found his breathing quicken with excitement.

"I’ll start right away!"

The straightforward young man immediately promised, thumping his chest and abdomen.

"Before manifesting, you must make a good plan for the landscape and its orientation."

"The Tree-Person Clan Chief has lived for many years. If you are unsure about anything, you can consult with her," Li Fan did not forget to remind him.

Shang Tianci nodded repeatedly.

"With Little Shang’s help, our [United Federation of All Realms] is starting to shape up quite nicely."

"Just awaiting the completion of the deal with the Five Elders Organization to gather the resources, we can start construction officially."

Li Fan felt a touch of pride within.

"I wonder if it’s possible to refine the Spirit Tree Realm into a portable Magic Treasure."

"And then use an anchor point for replacement, binding it with Even True."

"A solid and stable base, as it seems now, is rather important."

Li Fan pondered to himself.
