Chapter 239: Freedom to Realize the Ultimate Intention

The most crucial factor was the technique of developing the body's hidden potential; its Cultivation speed was far from comparable to the path of Cultivation taught by an Immortal Venerable.

Li Fan consulted these books and found that the difficulty of developing the body's hidden potential increased exponentially after its power reached a level almost equivalent to the Golden Core Realm.

It was as if an invisible shackles had been added, and even a slight improvement required an extremely high price.

For the same amount of effort, the gains from Cultivating immortality were far greater than those from developing the body's hidden potential.

What's more, immortal techniques could draw upon the energy Laws of heaven and earth. How could their power compare to that derived solely from the body's own strength?

What was the point of dropping blood to Rebirth when it couldn't compare to the power of a Cultivator becoming immortal and their cave abode never perishing after reaching the Nascent Soul stage?

In short, according to the research and deductions of many Cultivators, this technique of developing the body's hidden potential might have a special method that could contend with the Dao of Immortality.

But the premise was to break away from the general environment of the Xuanhuang World.

"It's like the power of firearms and gunpowder being suppressed in this world. The technique of developing the body's hidden potential is also like this."

Li Fan had once experimented with the firearms brought from Great Xuan in the Cultivation World.

The explosive power was reduced by almost one hundredth.

The original Sharp Weapon instantly turned into a child's toy.

It was indeed as Kou Hong had said: they became a pile of scrap metal.

"The Xuanhuang World is the world of the Dao of Immortality."

"Power systems other than the Dao of Immortality will be suppressed to varying degrees."

"It's as if the Heavenly Dao is consciously rejecting external forces."

Li Fan came to this conclusion after corroborating it with his previous experiences.

However, Li Fan had already had a faint guess before this.

So he wasn't too surprised at this moment.

"Although it lacks sustained power, it's enough to help Tian Yang break through."

"However, relying solely on the power of the body's hidden potential to enable a Mortal to defeat a Golden Core within six years…"

"It's still a bit lacking."

"Body Transformation Other Freedom…"

"Foundation Establishment with Myself…"

Li Fan slowly pondered the relevant possibilities in his mind.

To be honest, the ancient Body Transformation Dao's "Body Transformation Other Freedom" and the current "borrowing the wonders of heaven and earth to establish the Dao Foundation" were almost equally ingenious.

Both involved borrowing from external objects to nourish oneself.

And on Yinyin Island, Yin Shangren had once told Li Fan about the possibility of "The Foundation Establishment Method of Self."

This couldn't help but make Li Fan also wonder if "Body Transformation Other Freedom" could achieve self-transformation?

Completely separating consciousness and body.

First, treating one's body as an external object, and then gradually integrating self and object.

When transforming into other objects, Cultivating to the extreme could achieve the unity of self and object.

And if one could transform into oneself and Cultivate to the extreme, would that not mean achieving complete control over one's own body?

It was almost identical to "The Foundation Establishment Method of Self."

When a Cultivator could fully control his body, and then mobilize the endless potential hidden within it…

What terrifying power would erupt?

This was Li Fan's envisioned method for breaking the situation.

And once the experiment was successful in the simulated world, Li Fan might not be unable to replicate it in the real world.

Of course, the difficulty involved would certainly be very high.

Li Fan was not someone with extraordinary talent; it was impossible to achieve the goal directly in a hurry.

Only through repeated attempts could it ultimately be realized.

Fortunately, Huan Zhen gave Li Fan enough capital to allow him to experiment repeatedly without worries.

"In the real world, use the Clone to Cultivate the method of the body's hidden potential."

"Accumulate experience. Once I feel I have a certain grasp, I will activate the simulated world and try it on Tian Yang."

With a plan in mind, the Clone, which had been idle and loafing around, immediately took action.

Li Fan's main body, on the other hand, worked on three things simultaneously: Cultivating, learning Formation, and studying the Heavenly Physician Immortal Scripture.

At the same time, he held the second hua dao stone in his palm, ran the Mystic One Transformation Dao secret method, and absorbed the mysterious energy contained within it to strengthen the blue crystal in his Sea of Consciousness.

With his mind divided into four uses, Li Fan felt that he had reached the limit where efficiency was not affected.

Of course, he could split off more consciousness to do other things, but doing so would inevitably slow down his thought process, which would be counterproductive.

He could only wait until his Divine Sense grew stronger in the future to solve this problem from its root.

Dispelling the distracting thoughts in his mind, Li Fan completely immersed himself in Cultivation.

Time slowly passed, entering the anchored fifteen years.

On the Barren Island, Ye Feipeng, who had just sparred with Xiao Heng and was still defeated by the killing move "Water Dragon Song," was a bit exasperated.

With a displeased expression, he left the others behind and came alone to the beach, looking at the boundless sea, secretly making his own calculations.

"Damn it, if this continues, not to mention Xiao Heng, even Su Xiaomei will be stronger than me."

"And Zhang Haobo too."

"As expected of someone who could achieve Dao integration in the previous life. I thought that by taking his Luck, he would become a Mortal from then on."

"I never expected that approaching him at that time would attract the attention of that old undying skull, allowing him to embark on the immortal path again."

"Hmph, if I had known, I should have been more ruthless back then and just killed him directly."

"Then I wouldn't have to feel an uncontrollable jolt in my heart every time I see him now."

"However, fortunately, this treasure will not be yours in this life."

Ye Feipeng subconsciously touched his chest.

There, a light blue transparent water bead was continuously helping him absorb the pure water-attribute spiritual Qi from his surroundings, increasing his Cultivation.

Ye Feipeng naturally knew that this blue water bead was the cang hai pearl.

In his previous life, it was with its help that Zhang Haobo was able to slay Chiyan at the Golden Core stage and successfully achieve Dao integration.

In this life, he imitated Zhang Haobo, constantly pursuing and resolving wind disasters, trying to attract the attention of Congyun Sea.

Through his unremitting efforts, he finally succeeded.

But he couldn't be happy no matter what.

"With such a treasure assisting me, my Cultivation speed still can't compare to those few freaks on the island. Could it be that I, Ye Feipeng, am truly so useless?"

The fatty grew more and more annoyed the more he thought about it, and couldn't help but fall into deep self-doubt.

After a long while, he took a deep breath and comforted himself: "Calm down, you need to calm down."

"What if my Cultivation speed is a bit slow? My biggest advantage is my foresight as a Rebirth person."

Ye Feipeng looked up at the distant sky, his eyes flickering.

"Heavenly Fiend Sword Intent…"

"The premonitions constantly coming from the cang hai pearl recently should be related to this."

"But I also feel that it's extremely dangerous there, and I've been hesitant to make up my mind to investigate…"

"No more!"

Ye Feipeng's eyes showed determination.

"The path of Cultivation inherently cannot avoid all risks."

"If I don't even have this much courage, how can I plan for Dao integration in the future?"

Displaying a speed utterly disproportionate to his physique, Ye Feipeng, like a ghost, rode the waves and wind.

In a blink of an eye, he left the Barren Island.
