Chapter 409: The Boundary of Immortals and the Unity of All Things

“As far as I know, apart from our sect’s fundamental technique, the ‘Ji Shi Longevity Scripture,’ there were several senior brothers who practiced other techniques back then.”

“If I awaken them in advance, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Wait until I gather enough techniques…”

Linghu Chang muttered to himself, but he noticed strange looks from Xiao Heng and the others.

He couldn’t help but stop and asked, “What’s wrong, Friend Xiao? Is there something wrong with my plan?”

Xiao Heng sighed, “Friend Linghu, I’m afraid the current situation in the cultivation world is not as simple as you imagine.”

Xiao Heng then explained the rough situation of the two colossal entities, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders’ Association, which almost monopolized all techniques in the world.

Linghu Chang’s complexion instantly turned extremely pale.

“How could this be?”

If these people weren’t lying, then the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders’ Association were terrifying entities even more formidable than the ten major sects of the Immortal Dao in the past.

Su Xiaomei hurriedly added, “The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is not a group of good people. If they learn about the current situation of your Medicine King Sect, they won’t spare you for the sake of treasures and techniques.”

Zhang Haobo also nodded, “The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance’s control over techniques is truly formidable. Especially the ancient technique you, Friend Linghu, are cultivating, it’s undoubtedly exceptional. It shouldn’t be a problem to reach the Dao Integration. With the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance’s style, they won’t let such a true technique remain outside. Once they get wind of it, they will definitely send Law Protectors to recover it.”

The three of them vividly described the terror of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance according to their own impressions.

Although Linghu Chang didn’t fully believe it, he understood the principle that innocent people shouldn’t be blamed for the sins of the guilty.

Joining the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and handing over the lives of hundreds of sleeping senior brothers to others was something he couldn’t do, entrusted by Lian Ruchen in his dying moments.

After thinking about it, he solemnly bowed to Xiao Heng and the others.

“I’ve been away from the Xuanhuang Realm for thousands of years, and the changes in the world are unfamiliar to me in many aspects. For the sake of the future well-being of my Medicine King Sect, I will trouble you all for assistance.”

Xiao Heng repeatedly said it was his duty.

After dealing with the matters inside the cauldron, Linghu Chang and the three others flew out from the Medicine King Cauldron.

Linghu Chang put away the Medicine King Cauldron.

Then, they planned to return to Shilin State along the same route.

Throughout the journey, everyone flew discreetly.

Seeing the magnificent heavenly cities along the way and the numerous cultivators of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance within, Linghu Chang became more convinced of his judgment, becoming more cautious.

…

Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance Headquarters.

Museum of Divine Treasures.

Guided by the attendant, Li Fan had already arrived at this magnificent building.

At this moment, his steps in the tour slightly paused.

The guide looked at him somewhat puzzled.

“Is there a place to rest here?”

Li Fan said with some apology.

A guide in black clothes looked at Li Fan, who was white-haired and looked old, with an understanding expression.

Then, he led him to a closed space.

Although simple in decoration, it had all the necessary furniture.

“You can rest here. If you want to visit again, just contact me through this jade card, marked with the year ‘Bing Yin.'”

Handing the jade card engraved with the words ‘Bing Yin’ to Li Fan, the guide quietly left.

Li Fan took a deep breath, digesting the information transmitted from Xiao Heng and the others.

“Immortal Ruin?”

His eyes narrowed.

“Extremely attractive, devouring everything.”

“Even capable of distorting time and space. Approaching it, a moment could be equivalent to a thousand years.”

“What is this…”

“A black hole?”

“Or rather, a force very similar to a black hole.”

“Does the mysterious existence above Yuandao Province have any connection with the Immortal Ruin?”

While Li Fan was organizing the information, he suddenly froze.

“Wait a moment, the Immortal Ruin, the Xuanhuang Realm below that can be attracted and devoured at any time.”

“As well as the anomalies in the Xuanhuang Realm after the death of cultivators.”

…

In an instant, combining the observations from Tianling Province

All the clues formed a line.

A logically consistent conclusion appeared in Li Fan’s mind.

Enough to rationally and completely unravel the doubts in Li Fan’s mind.

“To avoid the fate of the entire Xuanhuang Realm being swallowed by the Immortal Ruin above, it needs to maintain a certain ‘weight’ itself.”

“And cultivators are also a crucial part of this ‘weight’…”

“When numerous cultivators die, the Xuanhuang Realm becomes lighter.”

“So, it is slightly attracted by the Immortal Ruin, approaching it by a small distance.”

“…”

“If the number of cultivators in the Xuanhuang Realm drops to a certain level, the entire Xuanhuang Realm will irreversibly…”

“Completely fall into the Immortal Ruin.”

“At that time, even the Longevity Immortal, I’m afraid, will not be able to escape the fate of destruction.”

“This is why Jihong Dao’s deterrent works.”

“Mutual destruction.”

“This is also why ‘the number of cultivators must not be too small.'”

Li Fan’s thoughts quickly turned, and he thought of Zhao Shijie’s words and actions. He vaguely felt that this judgment was extremely close to the truth.

But then the problem arose.

Why do cultivators have ‘weight’?

It’s understandable for the world to have weight.

But the physical bodies of cultivators, how…

In an instant, it was as if a lightning bolt had split through the mist.

Li Fan instantly understood.

“If it’s an ancient technique cultivator, naturally, there is no concept of ‘weight.'”

“But for new technique cultivators, they plunder the heavens and seize the earth.”

“Absorb the essence of heaven and earth, imitate the heavenly treasures, observe the laws of heaven and earth, seize the essence of heaven and earth, extract the marrow of heaven and earth…”

“They absorb a part of the world, turning it into their own.”

“It naturally obtains the attribute of ‘weight’ of the world.”

For cultivators below the Golden Core stage, it might not be obvious.

When reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, after swallowing the ‘Dharma’ originally belonging to heaven and earth, transforming it into their own domain.

This becomes more understandable.

“Dharma…”

“The ‘weight’ of the world…”

Li Fan then thought of more.

According to the observations of Linghu Chang from the Medicine King Sect.

The Immortal Ruin above the Xuanhuang Realm should have existed long before the spread of new techniques.

At that time, the ten major sects of the Immortal Dao joined forces to prevent the fate of the Xuanhuang Realm being swallowed.

What exactly did the top cultivators standing at the peak of the cultivation world do back then?

Thinking about the current situation of the Xuanhuang Realm, a bold speculation emerged in Li Fan’s mind.

“When I learned about the new techniques from the ‘Five Spiritual Qi Sensing Method,’ I had doubts in my heart.”

“Cultivators plundering the heavens and seizing the earth, and yet this world can persist for so long. It’s truly incredible.”

“After delving into various secrets of the Xuanhuang Realm, I also had suspicions.”

“There are too many ‘subworlds’ and small worlds contained within the Xuanhuang Realm.”

“From the Great Xu to the edge of the realm. Even countless attached worlds, as well as countless subworld of various shapes.”

“Now it seems that these places may not have originally belonged to the Xuanhuang Realm.”

“But were ‘captured’ from the void by the cultivators of the ten major sects of the Immortal Dao back then, to avoid being swallowed by the Immortal Ruin.”
