My Simulated Road to Immortality - Chapter 1078 - 1033: The 72 Labyrinth
It was like an organ of the human body had been shrunk down to the size of a cell.
The Calamity Transcendence Sect was now hidden within the Void of Gou Mang Province under the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, imperceptible and unknown to ordinary people.
Li Fan, following the coordinates provided by the Tianxuan Mirror Avatar, arrived at a position 36,000 zhang above Gou Mang Province.
The entrance to the Calamity Transcendence Sect was right here.
The sect, having been shrunk down a hundred thousand times, was like dust, furthermore obscured by Law Transmission Forbidden Formations.
So even with Li Fan’s current observational skills, and knowing what to look for, he was still unable to detect any trace of the Calamity Transcendence Sect.
After pondering for a moment, Li Fan silently activated the Infinite Fulfillment and Emptiness Method and then severed a small part of his Divine Soul.
Once the Divine Soul left his body, it transformed into a tiny likeness of Li Fan, turned into a stream of white light, and teleported into a minute expanse of Void ahead.
As the surroundings expanded hundreds of times over, the space around Li Fan’s divided soul grew rapidly more vast as well.
The soul fragment raced through the vast Void, searching for signs of the nearby entrance to the Calamity Transcendence Sect.
To enter the Calamity Transcendence Sect, finding the entrance was the first step.
“It’s not just about shrinking in size; even the space itself here is a superposition of multiple directions.”
Before long, sensing the familiar presence of the Law Transmission Forbidden Formation, Li Fan abruptly halted.
Upon closer inspection, Li Fan saw an area not far in the Void that seemed to have been inlaid with a mirror, with a subtle discordance.
Nearly imperceptible to the average person, but Li Fan, having deduced and broken the Law Transmission Forbidden Formation countless times in the Dissociation Disc, was naturally very familiar with it.
Without hesitation, he flew toward that “mirror.”
It was as if suddenly passing through an invisible bubble, and in an instant, Li Fan felt the directions of the space around him—up, down, left, right—invert multiple times.
A slight sensation of dizziness washed over him, and Li Fan knew he had stepped into the second layer of space.
After entering the inner layer of space, in addition to the correct passage, many “side roads” were also established.
Step into one, and you would be teleported into a misleading Void labyrinth designed to confound.
With no exit, only a continuously magnifying, microscopic scale.
It was extremely difficult not to get lost, let alone to return and search for the Calamity Transcendence Sect again.
Fortunately, possessing the correct answers, Li Fan proceeded with caution, and after delving into seventy-two layers of space, he finally saw a mountain, floating within the Void, from afar.
Seventy-two layers of space, shrunk down by a hundred thousand times.
The Void was no longer the conventional black, but a strange, pale purple.
On the periphery bathed in the purple glow, fine lines would streak by swiftly from time to time.
Leaving only faint traces, which then quickly dissipated without a trace.
The speed was so fast that even Li Fan couldn’t capture it.
Even more peculiarly, in this space, purple light spheres of varying numbers would light up periodically.
They were like the sun, and like clusters of stars.
Briefly illuminating the place before quickly disappearing.
…
Amidst these mysterious scenes, the Calamity Transcendence Sect in the distance seemed even more bizarre.
Li Fan’s soul fragment approached the mountain slowly.
After passing through a layer of protective barrier, he formally entered the interior of the Calamity Transcendence Sect.
It appeared to be an independent space, and Li Fan finally heard sounds again beside his ears.
It wasn’t any specific sound, just the presence of sound, unlike the absolute silence that pervaded as he delved into the seventy-two layers of space earlier.
Li Fan’s current location was at the foot of the mountain.
Looking at the single flight of stone stairs leading upward in front of him, Li Fan attempted to fly directly towards the mountain top.
He didn’t get far before his vision blurred, and he found himself back where he started.
“I wonder if this is due to the Law Transmission Forbidden Formation, or if it’s an original protective measure of the Calamity Transcendence Sect?”
Thinking thus, Li Fan gave up flying and started climbing the mountain path step by step.
“Hmm?”
He hadn’t walked far when he suddenly came to a halt.
“Is this an illusion?”
Just now, it seemed like a shadowy figure ran past him, heading straight up the mountain.
Li Fan didn’t “see” the presence of the figure but distinctly felt it.
“Playing ghost tricks…”
Li Fan snorted coldly and continued forward.
Indeed, each time he climbed a distance upwards, he sensed the ghostly figure’s appearance.
Some were climbing the mountain like him, while others were descending from it.
The frequency of appearances became more and more frequent, and…
“With each appearance, the sensation it brings becomes more distinct.”
A trace of solemnity appeared on Li Fan’s face.
At first, it was like a breeze. Now, as the figures brushed past him, he could feel a clear chill and dampness.
So much so that this split soul felt as if a mortal running a long-distance in the dog days of summer, soaked in sweat…
“Sweat?”
Li Fan suddenly woke up, realizing something was amiss.
He swept his divine soul over himself; nothing was amiss.
He then executed the Water Mirror Technique, looking into the mirror.
Li Fan felt a tingling in his scalp in an instant.
It turned out that the dark shadows that had brushed past him had not disappeared.
Instead, they piled up and overlapped one after another, just like that, all clinging to his back.
What was even more horrifying was that had it not been for the mirror’s reflection, Li Fan would not have been aware of them at all!
It seemed from the reflection in the mirror that the shadows saw the gaze Li Fan cast.
Those previously indistinct shadows’ faces gradually became visible.
One after another, pale beyond measure, the faces kept shifting, and their voices started up intermittently in Li Fan’s ear.
“Climb the mountain, go up the mountain…”
“Run! Run fast!”
“Fellow daoist, carry me a distance, this mountain path is a bit too treacherous.”
“So tired. So very tired. Should be close to the exit by now, right?”
…
And as these voices appeared, Li Fan was startled to find that his body began to make different movements according to the varied content of these words.
He wanted to climb up the mountain yet felt an urgent desire to flee from this place.
Neither would concede to the other.
“Hiss…”
In the midst of these completely contradictory forces, it was like he was being pulled hard from both front and back.
Li Fan’s body was suddenly torn apart in the middle.
“That’s more like it, that’s more like it…”
Both sides had seized their own part, letting out joyous cheers in unison.
Afterwards, these figures, each holding half a body, went their separate ways.
One descending, the other ascending, they moved swiftly along the mountain path.
Seemingly tainted by these shadows, Li Fan’s two halves also seemed to be covered in a thick layer of darkness.
In the erosion and transmutation of time, the two halves silently transformed back into two complete bodies.
Outside the Calamity Transcendence Sect, in the normal space of the Xuanhuang World.
Li Fan, sensing the visions transmitted by his two split souls, revealed an interested expression.
One on the left, one on the right; one ascending, one descending.
Two images presented at the same time.
