My Longevity Simulation

While shocked by this unknown and overwhelming power, the Heavenly Doctor also became deeply wary of the original owner of this body.

Thus, taking advantage of Xuanyuan Tuo's severe injuries and unconscious state, the Heavenly Doctor gradually began tampering with his body.

The Heavenly Doctor knew that Xuanyuan Tuo was protected by the power of that mysterious murmuring sound. Therefore, he did not use ordinary methods. Instead, relying solely on the connection between their two souls within one body created by the [Heavenly Soul Reincarnation] technique, he used himself as the medicine and slowly infiltrated Xuanyuan Tuo's body.

In a certain sense, he was Xuanyuan Tuo, and Xuanyuan Tuo was him. It was only because of the mysterious power enveloping the Xuanyuan clan's bloodline that Xuanyuan Tuo, who should have lost his independent consciousness, was still able to retain control over the body.

The stronger Xuanyuan Tuo became, the stronger the Heavenly Doctor became alongside him.

As Xuanyuan Tuo's injuries gradually recovered, he slowly awakened and escaped from the Dark Sea.

The mysterious disappearance of six Longevity Immortal realm experts naturally caused a tremendous uproar.

However, the Ten Great Sects possessed profound foundations. Although this loss could already be considered a serious blow, it was still insufficient to bring them to ruin.

Xuanyuan Tuo faintly sensed that he would soon face the Ten Great Sects' true trump card.

Yet for some reason, Xuanyuan Tuo seemed to have overestimated the Ten Great Sects. Until he achieved the Longevity Heavenly Sovereign realm, the Ten Great Sects never managed to organize any effective counterattack. They merely withdrew their forces and consolidated their own sect territories.

They allowed the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance to gradually devour the small sects and minor factions surrounding the Ten Great Sects.

Then, when Xuanyuan Tuo finally attained Longevity Immortal, the laws of heaven and earth in the Xuanhuang Realm were permanently changed.

The old cultivation method ceased to exist, and the new cultivation method became the only path available to all cultivators.

Xuanyuan Tuo's lifelong ideals and ambitions were finally achieved. Anyone in the world who wished to cultivate could do so without obstruction.

Although he had already foreseen that, as the number of cultivators continued to increase, the resources required to advance through the new cultivation system would eventually become a constraint upon their cultivation, Xuanyuan Tuo had already prepared a solution.

After absorbing the power of [Golden Authority], he could manipulate the Xuanhuang Realm, continuously generating all kinds of wondrous objects, Cave Heavens, and even the essence of heaven and earth.

Within, the Xuanhuang Realm would continuously evolve, creating an endless cycle of life.

Without, it would annex and absorb the surviving cultivation worlds in the star sea, replenishing its resources.

As the number of new method cultivators increased, Xuanyuan Tuo's own strength would continue to rise.

Even if the Immortal Path had already been severed, he could still reach the pinnacle of the Star Sea. At that time, he would repair the ancient formation left behind by the Ancient Xuantian Sect and take the Xuanhuang Realm away from the range enveloped by the Immortal Ruins.

After reaching a relatively safe region for a period of time, he would then use the power that defied the principles of heaven and earth when a Longevity Immortal Heavenly Sovereign attained the Dao to continuously transform the Xuanhuang Realm.

According to Xuanyuan Tuo's calculations, as long as a dozen or so Longevity Heavenly Sovereigns worked together to construct and transform the Xuanhuang Realm, then, combined with the activation of the ancient formation, they might be able to cross the High Wall.

Xuanyuan Tuo, the Dharma-Transmitting Heavenly Sovereign, was continuously accumulating and increasing his own strength. At the same time, he was secretly observing the cultivators within the Xuanhuang Realm who were capable of shouldering great responsibilities.

He did not care about aptitude. He only looked at their temperament and character.

Those who passed his tests would secretly receive his assistance, allowing them to comprehend the method of reversing the principles of heaven and earth and directly attain the Longevity Immortal realm.

Xuanyuan Tuo had indeed selected several promising young people worthy of being entrusted with great responsibilities.

But before he could take action, a calamity suddenly descended upon the Xuanhuang Realm. The two cultivation methods could no longer coexist.

Such a drastic change in heaven and earth was truly beyond Xuanyuan Tuo's expectations.

He possessed the Dao of [Golden Authority]. In principle, the entire Xuanhuang Realm should have been under his control. Yet such a change had inexplicably occurred.

Xuanyuan Tuo understood that the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao must have somehow awakened a power capable of opposing the Dao of Golden Authority.

The Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable.

This name instantly appeared in Xuanyuan Tuo's mind.

Xuanyuan Tuo did not harbor much hostility toward this newly ascended Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable. He even wanted to seek him out and have a conversation.

Unfortunately, this Great Celestial Venerable had concealed himself extremely well by relying on the power of the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao.

Meanwhile, Xuanyuan Tuo also had to divert his attention to deal with the mess left behind by the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance after the calamity of the two cultivation methods being unable to coexist descended.

The Ten Great Immortal Sects possessed profound foundations, and their disciples practiced many different cultivation methods. With their existing order still intact, they would not completely collapse in an instant.

Although the number of cultivators in the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance was expanding at an astonishing rate, the vast majority practiced the [Heavenly Net Divine Art] taught by Xuanyuan Tuo.

This cultivation technique, personally derived by Xuanyuan Tuo and encompassing countless principles, with a single method reaching through heaven, became the death warrant of everyone in the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance when the calamity arrived.

The Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance had only been established for a short time. It was originally a loose alliance jointly formed by new method cultivators. Aside from Xuanyuan Tuo himself possessing tremendous prestige, few others could truly command the respect of everyone.

Under the descending calamity, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance fell into a horrifying massacre among its own members.

The Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, which the Ten Great Sects regarded as their greatest threat, collapsed on its own before the Ten Great Sects even needed to attack.

After this incident, Xuanyuan Tuo deeply understood the importance of a profound foundation.

When the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance first rose, its momentum had indeed appeared overwhelming. But its accumulation was insufficient, and its ability to withstand risks was simply too weak. The slightest storm was enough to break it.

While attempting to rescue and preserve the vitality of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, Xuanyuan Tuo also tried to find that Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable.

But because he had created the new cultivation method, without the power of [Golden Authority], he and the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao could be said to be mortal enemies.

Naturally, that Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable also regarded him with irreconcilable hatred.

'He has misunderstood me far too deeply. This is truly a case of judging someone by their actions rather than their intentions.' Xuanyuan Tuo felt somewhat regretful.

But as an unparalleled expert, he was too proud to step forward and explain himself.

Even the Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable could not stop the Dharma-Transmitting Heavenly Sovereign, who had already completely succeeded in reversing the principles of heaven and earth.

However, not long afterward, two more unexpected things happened to Xuanyuan Tuo.

The first was that Xuanyuan Tuo, already the strongest expert of the current era, would occasionally experience an inexplicable sense of alarm and unease.

His heart would suddenly fill with anxiety and sorrow.

After carefully investigating the matter, Xuanyuan Tuo was horrified to discover that these emotions did not originate from himself.

They came from another existence within his body.

Another consciousness that he had been unable to detect for a very long time.

The second matter was that the calamity of the two cultivation methods being unable to coexist had yet to pass when another disaster, known as the Immortal-Mortal Miasma, quietly descended upon the world.

The arrival of the Immortal-Mortal Miasma was accompanied by the death of that unknown Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable.

This matter shocked Xuanyuan Tuo even more than discovering the existence of another consciousness within his body.

Because Xuanyuan Tuo understood that the Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable had used his own life as the price to execute a method that reversed the principles of heaven and earth.

By simultaneously attaining the status of both the New and Old Method Heavenly Sovereigns, he had also suffered a backlash and perished.

Xuanyuan Tuo simply could not understand his actions.

Yet Xuanyuan Tuo knew that someone capable of simultaneously becoming the Heavenly Sovereign of both the New and Old Method could certainly not be an incompetent or foolish person.

There had to be a reason why he had done this.

Xuanyuan Tuo was utterly unable to understand it.

Until later, when he discovered that even after cultivators expelled and overcame the Immortal-Mortal Miasma, it would still remain within the bloodlines of their descendants.

It had become part of the laws of heaven and earth, preventing mortals from cultivating.

But if mortals could overcome this suppressive force and embark upon the path of cultivation, it would be equivalent to completing a minor reversal of the principles of heaven and earth.

Although it was still far from being enough to influence the fundamental laws of heaven and earth, when the passage of time was extended, countless mortals would continuously embark upon the path of cultivation.

The birth of every single cultivator was equivalent to shaking the foundation of the Dharma Transmission.

'It cannot kill me, but it has eliminated a large portion of the accumulation brought to me by every cultivator who practices the new cultivation method.'

'Originally, every cultivator born within the new cultivation system would become part of the foundation of my cultivation. As this accumulated over time and continued to increase, one day it would surely push me toward an unknowable sacred realm.'

'But now...'

'It is cutting off my path to the Dao!'

Even a clay figurine has three parts of temper.

Having finally realized what had happened, Xuanyuan Tuo could not help but fly into a rage. But that Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable was already dead. Where could Xuanyuan Tuo go to vent his anger?

Just as Xuanyuan Tuo's mind was more unsettled than ever before, his consciousness was suddenly pulled into a pitch black space. He lost control over his own body.

Floating before him was an aged old man with a head full of white hair.

Although the man's appearance was completely different from his own, when Xuanyuan Tuo looked at him, it was as if he were looking into a mirror.

"Heavenly Doctor!"

For some inexplicable reason, Xuanyuan Tuo called out the man's name.

The Heavenly Doctor did not waste words with him.

Instead, blood tears flowed from his eyes.

As if possessed, he repeatedly muttered, "Return to the Heavenly Law Realm quickly. Return to the Heavenly Law Realm quickly!"

Xuanyuan Tuo immediately understood. This was the reason he had been feeling restless and uneasy in his heart recently.

Xuanyuan Tuo tried to communicate with him.

But the Heavenly Doctor, whose heart was consumed by thoughts of the Heavenly Law Realm, could not hear a single word.

Xuanyuan Tuo wanted to suppress him, but to his horror, he discovered that the other was almost exactly like a copy of himself. His strength was nearly identical to his own.

With the support of his overwhelming obsession to return to his homeland, he was even somewhat stronger than Xuanyuan Tuo.

Gradually, he seized control of the body.

The appearance of the body used for transmitting the Dao also slowly changed into the Heavenly Doctor's original appearance.

It was as if he had been sealed inside a small dark room. Xuanyuan Tuo could only vaguely sense what was happening outside.

He saw that when the Heavenly Doctor finally returned to the Heavenly Law Realm after enduring countless hardships, the living beings of the Heavenly Law Realm had already been slaughtered almost to the last.

The horrific scene was so brutal that even Xuanyuan Tuo found it difficult to accept.

His homeland had suffered a great calamity, and the Heavenly Doctor descended into madness.

A terrifying storm seemed to rage within his heart, severing the connection between Xuanyuan Tuo and himself.

Xuanyuan Tuo accumulated his strength, attempting to seize back control of the body.

He did not know how much time had passed when another transparent figure, apart from the Heavenly Doctor, appeared in this place.

What caused Xuanyuan Tuo an overwhelming sense of danger was that this transparent figure seemed to possess neither awareness nor consciousness.

Yet it could attach itself to and erode his consciousness.

This was a strange power Xuanyuan Tuo had never encountered before.

Although he desperately resisted, he ultimately could not prevent it from eroding him step by step.

Just before this transparent body completely occupied Xuanyuan Tuo's consciousness, that ethereal whispering voice once again surfaced in his mind.

With the help of this miraculous power, Xuanyuan Tuo could barely maintain his awareness.

In the dark space, there was no way to know how much time had passed.

After an unknown length of time, Xuanyuan Tuo finally sensed that the opportunity had arrived.

The body seemed to have entered a strange space.

And within this place, the mysterious whispering voice became clearer than ever before.

Relying on the strength he had accumulated for a long time, Xuanyuan Tuo launched a full counterattack and unexpectedly gained control of his body for a brief instant.

Although it lasted only an instant, after understanding his current state, Xuanyuan Tuo still came up with a way to deal with it.

The space where the body currently resided seemed to be the interior of an immortal artifact. That was precisely why it had resonated with the mysterious whispering voice, which carried an Immortal-level power.

Xuanyuan Tuo softly murmured, leaving the whispering voice in his mind behind within the internal space of the immortal artifact.

Relying on this strange whispering power, which possessed the heaven defying ability to influence future reality through memories of the past, Xuanyuan Tuo was confident that he could make use of the later people who would continuously enter this immortal artifact space.

Through them, he would search for a way to escape his predicament.

After imprinting the whispering voice, Xuanyuan Tuo once again lost control of his body.

He was once more sealed within the boundless darkness of consciousness.

Time passed without him knowing.

During this period, he attempted to fight back several times. However, for some unknown reason, the power suppressing and sealing him became increasingly stronger. It seemed that he would never have another chance to turn the situation around.

But Xuanyuan Tuo never gave up.

Because the whispering voice he had implanted earlier was continuously gathering energy for his counterattack.

It would simply take a little longer for him to completely break free.

...

Back to the present.

As Li Fan watched the scenes reconstructed within the illusion formation based on the memories of the Dao transmitting body, his expression changed subtly several times.

Even though he believed he already understood the story between the Dharma-Transmitting Immortal Ancestor and the Heavenly Doctor quite well, he had never expected the truth to be so convoluted, and...

That fate could be so cruel.

However, what concerned Li Fan the most was the various strange phenomena surrounding the Xuanyuan Clan.

Not only that mysterious and extraordinary whispering voice.

There was also the crazy uncle Xuanyuan Sheng, whom Xuanyuan Tuo had encountered during his childhood.

"Goudan, you must understand. Everything in this world has already happened countless times..."

Li Fan narrowed his eyes and carefully pondered these words.

"Was it merely the meaningless babbling of a madman, or did it truly contain some deeper meaning?"

It was difficult for Li Fan not to associate these words with [Truth].

And according to Xuanyuan Tuo's memories, it was still uncertain whether Xuanyuan Sheng had actually died on the night he disappeared.

"The Xuanyuan Clan worships the memorial tablet of Xuanyuan Hong. It should be a contingency left behind by the Xuantian King."

"The Xuantian King actually possessed that heaven defying whispering power?"

"Or perhaps that is the true might that a Half Immortal should possess?"

Although Li Fan had already advanced to the Half Immortal realm, the only Immortal-level means he possessed was his mastery of formations.

In every other aspect, there was no qualitative difference from the methods he had possessed during his mortal cultivation.

"Imprinted within the Tianxuan Realm?"

Li Fan's gaze pierced through the Darkest Star Sea and fell upon the Xuanhuang Realm.

He had entered the Tianxuan Memorial Hall more than once.

He had also experienced various illusions of different Dao-transmitting experiences.

"It appears that one were experiencing the past of the Immortal Ancestor."

"In reality, one is being eroded by the whispering voice..."
