Spiritual Light Breaks Through the Mist

Small World and Xuanhuang World are not located in the same space-time?

While the woman in green looked at Li Fan with a half-smile, Li Fan's own thoughts raced.

Is it true, or false?

Is it a test, or a fabricated lie to use as a bargaining chip?

In a flash, Li Fan quickly analyzed.

Assuming the other party had already discovered his identity as a complete liar, then she shouldn't be wasting more words here, explaining anything.

Choosing to run away directly, or setting up an ambush to capture him and interrogate him, would be the normal course of action.

This means, to a large extent, the woman in green is still unsure of his identity.

After all, in the history of Xuanhuang World, there really was an incident where Small Worlds united to counterattack the Cultivation World.

And whether Small World and Xuanhuang World are located in the same space-time, if he was truly an "Envoy of the Ten Thousand Realms Union," then he couldn't possibly be unaware.

Regarding the future life and death of the Empire, this "Saint Master" should not fabricate such an easily exposed lie.

Therefore, this means that what she said is very likely to be the truth.

At the very least, it is the truth in the eyes of the woman in green.

A question naturally arose.

Since Small World and Xuanhuang World are not located in the same space-time, then when facing the threat of the Immortal Ruins, why didn't the Cultivators of Xuanhuang World choose to escape to various Small Worlds through the Immortal Path and then cut off contact with Xuanhuang World?

If Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, and Dao Integration cultivators might have the possibility of insufficient Spiritual Qi in the Small World or insufficient ability to sever the passage.

Then for Chang Sheng Tian Zun, these restrictions are almost negligible.

So why didn't the Chang Sheng Tian Zuns run?

The answer to this question is nothing more than not afraid, not wanting, and unable.

Not afraid?

In the previous life, Celestial Venerable Yixin chose to retreat when faced with the threat of mutual destruction from the Lock Spirit Array. This shows that even a strong person in the Chang Sheng Realm cannot be preserved in the Immortal Ruins.

Thus, this possibility can be ruled out.

Don't want to? Righteous and unafraid of death, falling into the Immortal Ruins with Xuanhuang World?

Judging from the current path to Dao of the Cultivators in this realm, this would never be the choice of these few Chang Sheng Tian Zuns now.

Then there is only one answer left.

The Chang Sheng Tian Zuns are unable to leave Xuanhuang World?

The moment this thought surfaced, Li Fan felt only absurdity and ridicule in his heart.

How terrifying are the strengths of the strong in the Chang Sheng Realm?

How could it be…

Li Fan suddenly froze slightly.

What if, what if this is true?

All along, Li Fan has had a question.

Why can one achieve longevity by defying the Law of heaven and earth?

All living beings in the world have an end to their Lifespan.

Even the legendary longevity species only live a little longer than ordinary creatures.

If there is anything in Xuanhuang World that can truly be worthy of the words "longevity," it is probably only heaven and earth itself.

Why can one complete a complete transformation by defying the Law of heaven and earth?

To have a Lifespan as long as heaven and earth with a Cultivator's body?

"Law of heaven and earth, defying the Law of heaven and earth…"

Suddenly, a scene flashed through Li Fan's mind.

In the previous life, when Ji Hongdao faced Zhao Shijie's aggressiveness, he once said: "After a Tian Zun 'establishes the Law,' he should no longer participate in worldly disputes."

"Establishes the Law."

These two words were like a flash of lightning, cutting through the fog.

Making Li Fan notice a point he had long overlooked.

Living beings in the world forget their worries and are happy.

Living beings in the world must respect the cultivation method of Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission.

These rules, which go against common sense, now truly exist between heaven and earth.

In other words…

After reversing the original Law of heaven and earth, the Dao of the Tian Zuns took its place, becoming the New Law of heaven and earth, transforming into a part of the world.

It is precisely because of this reason that the Tian Zuns obtained a Lifespan as long as heaven and earth.

It is also for this reason that the Chang Sheng Tian Zuns cannot leave Xuanhuang World.

Before the Chang Sheng Realm, Cultivators were like robbers who entered a house and plundered at will. The furniture and treasures in the house were all stuffed into their pockets.

But some greedy people set their sights on the house itself.

Wanting to usurp the host and take the house for themselves.

They succeeded, but they triggered the house's ultimate countermeasure.

The door slammed shut, and while they became the owners of the house, they were also forever locked inside this room.

"Is this heaven and earth's counterattack?"

Li Fan suddenly understood.

Li Fan had already understood a principle before.

Facing the Cultivators who plundered heaven and earth, heaven and earth themselves were not entirely without the power to resist.

In addition to the suddenly born Law like immortal techniques not being able to be cultivated together, and the heaven and earth spirit descending to perform its duty, and other means targeting ordinary Cultivators.

Facing the Chang Sheng Tian Zuns who were powerful enough to threaten themselves, heaven and earth chose extreme countermeasures.

That is, "if you can't beat them, join them."

It must be said that this move was indeed effective.

Because when they achieved Chang Sheng Tian Zun, their faction identity changed from Cultivator to heaven and earth.

If Cultivators plundered heaven and earth without restraint.

It could eventually lead to the depletion and decay of heaven and earth.

And the Chang Sheng Tian Zuns, who are essentially one with the world, must act to prevent this from happening for their own safety.

So it is necessary to artificially control the number of Cultivator developments.

This is also one of the reasons why the number of Cultivators cannot be too many.

Li Fan also thought that the Immortal Dao Ten Sects offered a reward for the xuantian treasure mirror.

Claiming that anyone, with this mirror alone, could exchange for a longevity fruit.

"It seems that the Chang Sheng Realm in ancient times was also likely to have stolen the original longevity fruit of heaven and earth through some method."

Li Fan pondered.

After such a deduction, Li Fan felt a little disappointed.

The Chang Sheng Tian Zun of Xuanhuang World seems to be still a little far from his ideal "longevity."

It was just borrowing the power of heaven and earth to obtain a Lifespan that did not belong to him.

"Pseudo-longevity then…"

"But strictly speaking, it's not something particularly difficult to accept."

"After all, the 'Chang Sheng Realm' of this world was just an attempt by Cultivators to extend their Lifespan after the Immortal Path of Xuanhuang World was cut off."

"And, it's not necessarily impossible to go further."

Li Fan thought of the Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission who disappeared in the previous life.

"This pioneer of the New Law might have already taken a step ahead and broken free from the world's shackles."

"No wonder in the previous life, Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission did not appear for thousands of years. And facing the occasional wars between the two sides, the Tian Zuns of the Five Old Men Association never made a move."

"Because in the eyes of the Tian Zuns of the Five Old Men Association, since the Chang Sheng Realm cannot leave Xuanhuang World, then Chuan Fa must still be somewhere."

"Just relying on a single agreement to tie them down."

"Until later, they finally found something wrong. Only then did they impatiently take action to test…"

The effects of the enlightenment pill had not completely disappeared.

Under a flash of inspiration and coincidence, through the facts inadvertently pointed out by the woman in green, Li Fan deduced a possible and logically consistent truth about Xuanhuang World.
