My Simulated Road to Immortality

Tianyang discovered that this body is more like a puppet than flesh and blood.

A puppet created from a fusion of strange metals and flesh containing terrifying, unknown energy.

"Master was right. This puppet body is much stronger than the one I forged with terrestrial flame."

"Master, I really am still so useless."

Guilt flashed by, and the last of Tianyang's consciousness settled quietly into the flesh puppet.

...

At the moment Tianyang's consciousness was transferred into the flesh puppet, Li Fan had already transferred them together into the Da Qi Miniature World.

The upgraded simulated heavenly pattern, along with the rapidly set up layers of Immortal Arrays...

Sealed the flesh puppet.

The aura that surged from the puppet's body forced even Li Fan to temporarily retreat from its sharpness.

It was a fearsome power far exceeding the mundane, originating from the true immortal flesh!

This puppet was made by Li Fan from bronze cast immortal crane bones, with true immortal flesh attached, and then fused with Tianyang's Eternal Memento.

Lifeless flesh with no vitality or soul, waiting for Tianyang to awaken.

Before handing it over to Tianyang, Li Fan mixed in a large amount of black star stone powder.

It could be said that just in terms of the puppet's hardness, it is likely capable of ignoring the terrifying suction force of the Immortal Ruins and physically walk upon it!

Tianyang's consciousness gradually merged with the true immortal flesh puppet.

Li Fan watched from a distance as the puppet's expression changed continuously.

"With the support of the Eternal Memento, it should hold on and not be completely eroded by the power contained in the true immortal flesh."

"But after all, he's just a mortal; the amount of his consciousness that remains after resisting against the immortal power won't be much."

"Just like the previous Tianyang Puppet, it acts on instinct amidst the haze..."

"Impersonating Master Guangyang before, I was able to make him obey."

"But this puppet is much stronger than the original Tianyang Puppet."

Li Fan was quite satisfied, carefully observing the changes on the Fairy Puppet's body.

The bronze cast immortal crane came from the treasured collection within the Immortal Boat. It's said to be forged from fragments of Immortal Instruments.

True immortal flesh, Li Fan generated from ancient Immortal Bone using ancient divine characters.

Black star stone powder, the debris of worlds, the smallest particles cut by the Doomsday Fairy Array.

All three are entities that can contend with immortal power.

Afterwards, fusing with Tianyang's Eternal Memento...

This puppet in front of us could truly be worthy of the title "Tianyang Immortal Puppet"!

The true immortal flesh was originally just adhered to the bronze bones.

After integrating Tianyang's consciousness, it seemed to have found its backbone, even sprouting dense rootlets that penetrated into the bronze bones.

The flesh and bones thoroughly fused into one entity.

Tianyang's Eternal Memento, like a dazzling and indestructible diamond, radiated light in the sea of consciousness.

The puppet's appearance became more vibrant and detailed.

The surging aura slowly settled; the reborn Tianyang stood quietly.

With eyes tightly closed.

Without disengaging the protective Immortal Array.

Li Fan attempted to issue orders to Tianyang in the guise of Master Guangyang.

Tianyang was indeed very obedient.

Unfortunately, just as Li Fan predicted, Tianyang's autonomy was severely depleted from the merging and resisting process with the true immortal flesh.

The instinctual remnants were even less than expected.

"What a pity."

"However, with this life's experience, in the next reincarnation before the fusion is completed, I can appropriately increase the strength of Tianyang's consciousness."

With the Tianyang Immortal Puppet, he headed towards the depths of the Star Sea.

Li Fan began to test the strength of the Immortal Puppet's body.

First, he launched a Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword.

This was a Divine Technique that Li Fan comprehended on his own but had not used for a long time as he gradually came into contact with near immortal power.

The originally all-annihilating Dark Light, when it struck the Tianyang Immortal Puppet, did not even leave a faint mark!

Li Fan's eyebrows raised, then thousands of black Sword Lights fell like rain.

They surrounded the Tianyang Immortal Puppet.

However, this seemingly fierce attack, grand in its intensity, did not even trigger Tianyang's instinctive self-defense.

Tianyang stood still, letting the black Sword Light bombard his body.

It was as if he faced not a lethal technique, but a gentle breeze.

After a while, Li Fan nodded in satisfaction and ceased to stimulate the Five Elements Annihilation Sword.

"The Immortal Puppet's body has indeed achieved invulnerability to all mundane forces."

"But..."

"It doesn't mean that my Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword is now useless."

"The Five Elements cycle, unstoppable and annihilating everything. The essence of this Divine Technique is not outdated. It's just that when facing Immortal Level beings, relying solely on the core power of the Five Elements for annihilation is too weak." Li Fan reflected.

"However, if it could incorporate the change of 'True Yet False'..."

Li Fan bent his finger, intending to strike out a sword towards the distant Starry Sky.

But after hesitating, his finger remained raised without falling.

"The level of comprehension is too low. Integrating it into the Escape Technique is already the limit."

"To use it for slaying..."

"Perhaps it will need two or three more reincarnations, or perhaps, the help of that wondrous object that lets Hai Zhen reincarnate and simulate on his own."

Li Fan shook his head slightly, calming his thoughts, and slowly retracted his hand.

He started testing the Tianyang Immortal Puppet again.

Next up was the power of various True Immortal Seal Characters.

Chaos, Suppress, Annihilation...

Using the Essence of Source Power as ink, Li Fan displayed all that he had learned to his heart's content.

The Immortal Array blocked the surrounding area, preventing the energy fluctuations from leaking out.

Layers of True Immortal power descended upon the Tianyang Immortal Puppet.

Facing the destructive power of pseudo-immortal level, the Tianyang Immortal Puppet finally showed a slight reaction.
