My Simulated Road to Immortality

"The Three Saint Lords have already grown so strong? The only one across all realms..." Li Fan momentarily felt a bit lost.

"The Immortal World is boundless and limitless, with countless prodigies emerging since ancient times. Yet, those who can be called 'Saints' are merely those four beings. Even someone like our master, with his Heavensreach means, is only revered as 'Lord' by the world, and cannot bear the title of 'Saint.' How could you underestimate the Saints?" Bearing the Dao shook his head.

"It's not that I underestimate them." Li Fan smiled wryly, "The understanding of the Immortal World relies entirely on vague records, preventing a correct cognition. Were it not for your guidance, Senior Brother..."

"The only one across all realms, or the only one in Mountain Sea. Isn't that the legendary ultimate transcendence realm? The two Saint Lords of Mountain Lian and Gui Hai proved the Tao, one relying on the opening of Upper Mountain, another on the unblocking of Infinite Spring. As for Taiyi Saint Lord, how could he reach this level? Could it be that there is someone in the world comparable to Mountain Sea?" Li Fan directly chose to change the subject.

Bearing the Dao laughed: "Your Senior Brother, though I'm well-informed, the secrets of the Saint Lord proving the Tao are beyond my knowledge. Unless he publicly reveals, who could be clear on such matters? However, that Taiyi Saint Lord, comparing to Mountain Lian and Gui Hai, is indeed of equal strength. This was admitted by Mountain Lian Saint Lord in front of the Louhuang Immortal Emperor and numerous Nameless True Immortals. As for the last one to prove the Tao, Jingfen Great Saint..."

"To speak somewhat irreverently, the Three Saints might view Jingfen as merely a junior with some strength."

"The Three Saints are the Three Saints of Mountain Sea. Whereas Jingfen is merely the Saint Lord of our world."

"But this was just a judgment during the Immortal World's destruction. So many years have passed; what kind of strength Jingfen Great Saint has reached now cannot be rashly surmised. Who knows, maybe the Great Saint has already taken that final step to transcendence like the other Three Saints?"

Subsequently, Li Fan consulted Bearing the Dao on some secrets of the Immortal World. Then the topic shifted back to the enemy from Guang Wu Star Sea, the Other Shore Immortal in the Coffin.

"Benevolent Transformation has found that Immortal Coffin based on Peeping Star's guidance."

"Just as Senior Brother expected, that Immortal Coffin is indeed a condensed entity of the Tao. According to their current progress, approximately five hours later, the Coffin Immortal will arrive in our Primordial Immortal Realm." Li Fan showed the image sent by Benevolent Transformation to Bearing the Dao.

"Should we choose another location to confront? You and I, Senior Brother, to battle the Other Shore Immortal. This continent here might be collateral damage." Bearing the Dao glanced downward and asked.

"Ruined, we can reconstruct it. If it can't withstand this calamity, then even if destroyed, there's nothing to regret. Besides, the living beings in this realm, though not highly skilled, can barely help." Li Fan declined gracefully.

Bearing the Dao sincerely praised: "Junior Brother's mentality truly resembles that of a Saint in the Immortal World."

Li Fan smiled lightly, not responding.

"But, given the formidable enemy present, we must make some preparations..."

Bearing the Dao pondered briefly, then spoke: "If Junior Brother doesn't mind, I have a Divine Technique that I can impart to you. Although we don't know which Dao that Nameless in the Coffin is allied with, this technique is sufficient for self-preservation, even if it can't defeat the foe."

Li Fan was elated: "How could I refuse, Senior Brother? I eagerly await it!"

Bearing the Dao wasn't coy, and tapped Li Fan's brow softly.

His body and Divine Soul instantaneously felt as if returning to the Infinite Sea, washed by countless rapidly changing scenes.

Li Fan saw very clearly, the majority were scenes of a solitary figure sitting mountain watching sea.

Precisely Lord Guardian Hill!

Li Fan had seen this scene more than once in the "Rambles from the Guarded Hill."

But the difference at this moment was that it was from a third-person perspective!

And not the insights of Lord Guardian Hill himself.

Lord Guardian Hill not only sat mountain watching sea but also sheltered a Spirit Stone beneath him, protecting it from the collision impact of Mountain Sea.

"Mountain and Sea Immovable Body."

"By executing the Divine Technique, one can be like Lord Guardian Hill, remaining steadfast amidst the profound changes of Mountain Sea."

"Beyond defense, depending on one's understanding of Mountain and Sea Phenomena, one may mimic the Mountain Sea's scour and erosion power from one's Dharma Body. Of course, it's not truly emulating Mountain Sea with this technique, but rather drawing the opponent into one's perceived majestic realm of Mountain Sea, making them feel like Lord Guardian Hill watching sea."

"If the opponent has Lord Guardian Hill's abilities, or has received his legacy, naturally, they might ignore this intimidation. But for ordinary beings..."

"Especially those who have truly faced boundless despair in Mountain Sea, barely escaped, and now confront Mountain Sea again. They might collapse on the spot!"

Li Fan, while comprehending and practicing "Mountain and Sea Immovable Body," articulated its wonders.

He spoke not for himself, but for Bearing the Dao.

Bearing the Dao listened, nodding continuously, very satisfied with Li Fan's rapid comprehension.

"Senior Brother's move is indeed ingenious."

"No fear of accidental harm to fellow sect members, and it has unique effects on True Immortals in the world. The more one fears Path-obliterating Calamity, unwilling to bear responsibility, the more they will be influenced by this Divine Technique." Li Fan continued to praise.

At the same time, he executed "Mountain and Sea Immovable Body."

Li Fan remained the same Li Fan.

But around him, it seemed to have Mountain Sea encircling.

Bearing the Dao's eyes shone: "Junior Brother, your comprehension of Mountain Sea runs deep."

"It's due to Master and Senior Brother's excellent teaching!"

...

In the subsequent period, Li Fan, with Bearing the Dao's help, consolidated the Immovable Body Divine Technique. Although he already had "Illusion as Reality" protection, he never felt burdened by another protective Divine Technique. Perhaps at some future point, it may save his life.
