My Longevity Simulation - Chapter 1671

Chapter 1648 Cheng Dao’s Ambition

“Becoming an Immortal…”

“How can you become an immortal? If what I predicted is correct, if you really complete this journey, you will be not far from the nameless realm.” Cheng Dao stroked his beard and chuckled in praise.

“Uh? Is it really like that?” Bai Shuyue was a little puzzled.

Although she had extraordinary talent, she had no idea how to become an immortal. The path to becoming an immortal was suggested by Wuliangbi.

But ever since Cheng Dao showed up, the usually arrogant and domineering Wuliangbi has become unusually quiet, not daring to make the slightest noise.

Cheng Dao patiently explained to Bai Shuyue: “An immortal is a person who climbs a mountain. This mountain is [the upper side]. If you can get the power of the upper side, you will have the power of an immortal.”

“But this is not enough. You still need to step into the Infinite Sea and gain the power of Infinity. Only when you have the power of both the mountains and the sea can you become a true immortal.”

“Shangfang Mountain, Infinite Sea…” Bai Shuyue had heard of the names of mountains and seas before, but it was the first time that he clearly recognized the relationship between the power of mountains and seas and the true immortals.

“So what? What about climbing mountains and wading through the sea?” Bai Shuyue asked again.

“It was because of this question that Lianshan and Guihai were created as two saintly kings!” Chengdao sighed and slowly told the story of the two saints.

Lianshan, the number one immortal in the world.

Return to the sea and open up infinite springs.

Bai Shuyue was fascinated by the saint’s supreme supernatural powers and the stories of the creation of the world.

“As ordinary people, we don’t have the ability of saints to draw power directly from mountains and seas. Therefore, we need to borrow the power of the two saints.”

“In the past, mortals had to undergo the baptism of the Ascension Platform after ascending to become true immortals. Even the creatures in the immortal world who wanted to become immortals also needed the will of the Immortal Emperor to be canonized…”

Bai Shuyue gradually understood: “Whether it is the baptism on the Ascension Platform or the canonization of the Immortal Emperor, they are just the manifestation of the power of the two saints. Doesn’t it mean that all the true immortals in the world can only set foot on the mountains and seas by standing on the shoulders of the two saints Lianshan and Guihai? If one day, the two saints fall…”

The word “fall” could not be uttered as Chengdao gently pointed at it, eliminating the sound.

“Only someone like you, who has not yet entered the immortal path, would dare to say such things. With the Saint King above you, it’s better not to say certain things. The Saint may not care, but…” Cheng Dao glanced at Bai Shuyue lightly.

Suddenly, Bai Shuyue felt as if he was carrying a heavy burden, and cold sweat covered his forehead.

He was shocked and had a preliminary understanding of the strength of the old man in front of him. He nodded repeatedly to show that he was learning.

Cheng Dao’s expression became relaxed again, and he corrected Bai Shuyue’s previous understanding: “The help of the two saints is not mandatory, it just provides an easier way. If you really have extraordinary talent, you can climb mountains and cross the sea by yourself. But…”

“Without the protection of the Saint Sovereign, ordinary people, even if they can touch the mountains and seas themselves, will probably not be able to hold on for long before being assimilated and swallowed up by them.”

“As for your worries…” Cheng Dao chuckled, “The saints will definitely consider things more thoroughly than we do.”

The words stopped abruptly, but no one said where Zhou Quan was specifically.

Bai Shuyue was also very tactful and did not ask any further questions.

Instead, he turned to ask about the specific method of ascending to immortality: “May I ask Senior Chengdao, the immortal world has long been overthrown, the Immortal Emperor is gone, and the saints are nowhere to be seen. How can ordinary people like us seek immortality and ask for the way?”

“The simplest way…”

“I’ll just write an imperial edict.” Cheng Dao said calmly.

Such an answer was really beyond Bai Shuyue’s expectations, and she was slightly stunned.

Then he looked at Cheng Dao in disbelief.

Even though he had already estimated the strength of the old man in front of him to a certain extent, Bai Shuyue was still shocked when he heard the other party say this so casually.

“To be able to confer the title of a True Immortal, could it be that the person in front of me was once the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Realm?”

“No wonder Wuliangbi has become so obedient, as if he is afraid of being discovered.”

Bai Shuyue couldn’t help but have such a thought.

Then, a hidden worry suddenly arose in my heart.

“My strength and status are unimaginable, so why does he look at me differently? Could it be that it is just because of my talent? Or is it related to the secret of my continuous reincarnation?”

If Bai Shuyue simply had extraordinary talent, she would not worry for no reason. But it was precisely because she was holding a top secret that she became increasingly distracted.

Although Cheng Dao could not read Bai Shuyue’s inner thoughts, he could sense that he was in a state of confusion. However, he only thought that Bai Shuyue was shocked by what he said about the immortality, and did not think about other things for the time being.

“This decree has one use. It is like opening a road connecting the mountains and the sea for you. Your realm accumulation is already sufficient. The moment the decree is issued, you will be able to see the image of the mountains and the sea and become an immortal on the spot! However, I do not recommend you to choose this path.”

Bai Shuyue gathered his spirits and asked in a deep voice, “Why is this happening? I hope you can give me some pointers.”

“Because with your talent… it would be a bit of a waste to take this path. You are different from those other mediocre people. It is possible for you to find a way to the heavens.” Cheng Dao did not specify what realm he was in, but just used the four words “the way to the heavens” instead.

“Mountain climbing and sea crossing contain great dangers, but also great opportunities! In the past, the mountains and the sea were connected, and that’s how they became saints. With the blessing of others, I can get through this without any danger, but I also lost the great opportunity to experience the mountains and the sea myself. And seeing the mountains and the sea for the first time and gaining insights from it is the most important thing…”

“When I became an immortal, I observed the mountains and seas on my own, so my progress after becoming an immortal can be said to be rapid.” Cheng Dao looked pleased.

Bai Shuyue was slightly startled, then smiled bitterly and said, “Although I have some talent, I know that I can’t experience the mountains and seas like you did.”

“Hey…” Cheng Dao waved his hand, “You don’t have to be modest. In fact, your talent is not much weaker than mine.”

Bai Shuyue was stunned.

“With our strength before becoming immortals, we definitely couldn’t face the mountains and seas directly. But…”

Cheng Dao kept it a secret, and then said slowly: “If we have a master to protect us, we can ignore the risks.”

Bai Shuyue was completely stunned.

“Master protector?”

“That’s right! Unlike the Two Saints’ Blessing, Master’s Guardian will not block all attacks from the mountains and seas. Instead, it will only filter out those parts that exceed your tolerance limit. In this way, you can personally experience the mountains and seas without worrying about your own safety.”

“And, at that time, the teacher can give you a few pointers at the critical moment. It will not affect the direction of your comprehension of the Great Dao of Mountains and Seas, but will only help you clear the fog ahead. The efficiency of comprehension is more than a hundred times higher than that of a single person!” Speaking of his mentor, Chengdao looked serious and slowly explained the beauty of it.

Ever since he started his cultivation journey, Bai Shuyue has always been exploring on his own and has not become anyone’s disciple.

At this moment, hearing Chengdao mention the convenience of the teacher, I couldn’t help but feel longing.

At the same time, he had a thought in his mind and vaguely guessed why the other party looked at him differently.

However, he did not speak directly, but continued to pretend not to know, and said helplessly: “It is a blessing from heaven to have such a famous teacher. But what you don’t know is that I have always been alone since I started practicing…”

Cheng Dao raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes showing more joy, and finally got to the point: “My teacher’s name is [Shou Qiu]. It is thanks to his grace that I have achieved what I have today. Since I have learned from my teacher, I should inherit his teachings with my body and my will.”

“However, due to various reasons, I am still trapped here, and I have failed to live up to Master’s expectations.”

Cheng Dao stared at Bai Shuyue closely: “In the past, in order to save Shuo Xinghai, I wove a Dao network to carry Dao Yan. This time, I practiced the Dao taught by my master, but it lasted for a long time and became a shackle for me.”

As he spoke, Cheng Dao waved his hand, and the image of the Shuoxing Sea Road Network appeared in front of Bai Shuyue.

The strings of the road interweave horizontally and vertically, mysterious and magnificent.

As Cheng Dao spoke, the image of the Dao Network gradually enlarged, revealing its inner depths.

There were four figures, like prisoners, suppressed in the Taoist net.

The aura emanating from each of them made Bai Shuyue feel terrified.

“Nameless Immortal.”

With a solemn expression, Bai Shuyue set his sights on the figure in the center of the Taoist network.

Describes a person who is haggard and thin.

If she was not mistaken, his appearance was exactly the same as Cheng Dao in front of her!
As if he saw the surprise in Bai Shuyue’s eyes, Cheng Dao said frankly: “Yes, that’s me!”

“In the beginning, in order to convince the immortals to create the Dao Network, I was the first to join in. Although I have been able to protect this sea of stars for ten thousand years, however…”

“The Taoist net here has trapped me.” Cheng Dao’s expression became a little strange.

Bai Shuyue suddenly felt that her previous guess seemed to be wrong.

“Over the years, I have thought about it and finally realized the difference between what I did and what Master did.”

“The key to the mountains and seas lies outside, not here. As the saying goes, it has nothing to do with the end.”

“So the master who had repeatedly saved the fairy world in the past would resolutely leave after thinking it through. Only his shadow remained to inherit the Tao.”

“Master used a phantom to help resist Dao Yan. But I used my body as a pillar… This is the biggest difference!”

Cheng Dao sighed, “How can I truly carry on Master’s mission and save the mountains and seas if I am trapped here? At that time, I did not have the ability to transcend, but I tried to transcend by force. This is absurd!”

“If I had only focused on cultivation at that time and not cared about worldly affairs, I would have already reached the state of transcendence by now.”

“Although Master didn’t say it explicitly, I could vaguely sense his disappointment in me from our several communications.”

After Chengdao finished speaking, he stared at Bai Shuyue with burning eyes.

“I have long thought about withdrawing, but the mistake has already been made. If I forcefully escape, it will cause the Dao network to collapse and this world to fall, which is still against my path…”

“So, what does senior mean?” Bai Shuyue asked cautiously.

“In the past, I searched all over the starry sea, hoping to find someone who was qualified to take my place in the starry sea. However, I found that they were all mediocre people who were not capable of taking on great tasks. It was difficult for them to inherit my legacy. Now…”

“You deserve it!” Cheng Dao said firmly.

“I wonder if you are willing to share my worries?”

Bai Shuyue was a little hesitant and hadn’t answered yet, but Wuliangbi, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

Crazy reminded: “Promise him! Promise him! If we say no, we will all die!”

As if he had noticed the message from the Infinite Wall, Cheng Dao glanced towards the hidden place of the Infinite Wall without making any expression.

Bai Shuyue’s heart trembled.

Although she has the ability to be reborn infinitely, she is unwilling to give up her life unless she is in desperate situation.

At the moment, I could only bite the bullet and agree: “How dare I not respond to your request, senior.”

“Good!” Cheng Dao laughed loudly, because he was very happy that the shackles were about to be removed.

From the image of an old man, he instantly turned into a strong and steady middle-aged man.

“Don’t worry, you are not doing this job for me for nothing. You know, there are so many people in this world who are willing to replace me, but cannot get it.” Cheng Dao was in a very good mood and explained to Bai Shuyue.

“I turned my body into a pillar to hold up Dao Yan. The core of the Dao Network is the technique of the phantom carrying the Dao created by my master. But at that time, my strength was limited, and I could not bear the weight of Dao Yan by splitting the phantom. So I could only use my body to replace it.”

“If you are doing this for me, I will naturally teach you this method of phantom inheritance. Although I am not qualified to accept disciples on behalf of the master, but after learning this method of phantom inheritance, I can barely be considered a disciple of Shouqiu. When I report to the master in the future, you may have the opportunity to truly become his disciple.”

Faced with Chengdao’s big promises, Bai Shuyue didn’t hold out much hope.

More importantly, Bai Shuyue didn’t know much about who Shouqiu Gong was and what he had done.

All we know is that he once helped the fairy world to resist a devastating calamity.

So not terribly excited.

“There are other benefits to presiding over the Dao Network.” Cheng Dao continued to wave his hands, and the images of the thousands of Dao strings turned from virtual to real, as if they had really penetrated into the core of the Dao Network.

“Sitting deep in the Dao Network, you can closely observe the Dao principles in the Dao Network. And you will not be affected in any way. You can observe from a pure bystander’s perspective. This experience is extremely rare.”

“You know, in the ordinary state of enlightenment, the great Dao you see is chaotic and indistinguishable. Unless it is the moment when the world is first created and all the Daos are born…”

“Thanks to the special nature of the Dao Network, all the Dao within the Dao Network are classified and displayed in this way. The closer you are to the core of the Dao Network, the closer the Dao you see is to its root.” He led Bai Shuyue to the side of Cheng Dao’s original body.

Cheng Dao pointed at the countless clearly visible Dao strings around him and spoke slowly.

With Bai Shuyue’s understanding, after observing it for a moment, she knew that what Chengdao said was true.

It is a hundred times easier to attain enlightenment here than in the outside world.

Although the Dao rules in the Dao Network were somewhat lacking compared to the Star Sea, for Bai Shuyue, they were enough for her to comprehend for a long time.

“Not only that, the development of this network also coincides with your method of killing immortals to prove your Dao!”

“Please give me some advice, senior.” Bai Shuyue said solemnly.

“You should know that there are still some wandering True Immortals in this Shuoxing Sea. You can use the power of the Dao Network to defeat and suppress them one by one. While expanding the Dao Network, you can also increase your own foundation.”

“When enough has been accumulated…”

Cheng Dao bent down slightly and actually summoned a phantom.

“I can use your master’s protection to help you reach the fairyland!”
