Chapter 1951: Chapter 1533: Two Paths to Cultivate the Immortal Seed

“The idea is correct, but it’s a pity you haven’t positioned yourself properly,” Li Fan remarked.

The Tao Starry Sky he showcased in the thin sheet truly surpasses the mundane by far. It has even exceeded the limits imaginable by cultivators from Xuanhuang World.

To the ants on the ground, naturally, they cannot discern the difference between the first layer of heaven and the thirty-third layer.

The old Taoist thought he missed a mere method to become immortal. Yet, unexpectedly, it was a Path to the Heavens directly leading to the Other Shore!

“He still has pride unique to himself. Perhaps only at the moment of his eventual demise will he regret it.” Li Fan shook his head slightly.

For Li Fan, pursuing his own Tao and learning from other strongmen are not in conflict.

He can learn True and False Changes from Hai Zhen, comprehend Infinite Immortal Law from Mountain Sea, and study the Eternal Life Path from Lord Guardian Hill. But none of these would prevent Li Fan from ultimately walking his own path.

Even the Sect Masters of the Ten Sects, to Li Fan, are just insignificant ants in the River of Time. Not worth much attention.

What Li Fan cares about is still the grand play he has meticulously constructed.

As Li Fan’s finger quietly moves, the scales of victory gradually tilt towards the Taiyuan Realm.

The “strange malfunction” of the Taiyuan Rebirth Furnace seems to have finally completed its repair. And the efficiency of resurrection is even better than before. Although the reason for such a strange phenomenon is unclear, this does not prevent the cultivators from Taiyuan Realm from seizing this golden opportunity to swiftly counterattack, aiming to secure victory.

The Xuanhuang cultivators on the battlefield immediately felt the pressure.

In the past half-year, the attacks from the Taiyuan Realm cultivators usually lasted five or six days at most before they would temporarily retreat. But this attack is unusually fierce, breaking from the norm.

Enemies have fallen one batch after another, yet they are endless.

There were even claims of occurrences on the same battlefield where two or three mangled corpses of the same person appeared, which is something that stirs one’s spirit.

Even though the response from the Immortal Dao Ten Clans was quick enough, rapidly mobilizing backup support, the frontline was still forced to continuously retreat.

The hard-fought territories of Taiyuan Realm, secured with countless sacrifices, were lost inch by inch.

The surviving cultivators from the Xuanhuang World gradually found themselves compressed within the last defense circle.

Having seemingly gone through decades of relentless battle, the Taiyuan Realm side has also reached its limits. A rare moment of tranquility descended upon the battlefield, with all the Xuanhuang soldiers seizing this last opportunity to rest and fully recover their strength.

However, under such a high-pressure environment, not even a trace of “despair” emerged within their spirit consciousness. Only a steadfast belief remained, ready to fight to the death when the enemy charges again.

At the center of the Xuanhuang stronghold, the Sect Master of the One Beginning Sect, Qu Yixing, sat cross-legged, looking stern.

Above his head, the Power of Five Elements surrounded the Yin Yang Twin Energy, rapidly rotating like Tai Ji. Mysterious waves emanated from this vortex, influencing and changing the will of the Xuanhuang cultivators on the battlefield.

“Although Brother Yixing’s method is wonderful, it is not a long-term plan.”

“At most, it can last for another month. Otherwise, they will all become complete mindless monsters with only slaughter in their spirits.” Situ Yao said heavily.

“One month… I don’t think the situation can hold for that long. It might be better for everyone to make a decision early,” said Sect Master Fang Dinge of the Great Taoist Sect.

“I have already had Stone Mother carry out billions of calculations, and there is a 56% chance of success. The advantage is with us; we should take the gamble!”

A 56% probability, to Fang Dinge, appeared as a certain victory. No one present responded.

“Of course, if any of you is confident in ensuring the safety of Xuanhuang World while severing the Golden Sky Lock, then my plan can be disregarded.” Fang Dinge’s sharp gaze swept over the crowd.

“The safety of Xuanhuang World cannot be fully guaranteed. But if it is just the safety of the Ten Sects, perhaps it can be done.” After a moment of silence, a wrinkled Yellow Paper Man spoke.

The paper man looked at Fang Dinge with a bizarre and twisted expression, half-smiling, half-crying.

Upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossed Fang Dinge’s face: “Yi Jue! Stop trying to peddle your Calamity Transcendence plans. Even though not a single person from your sect has participated in this bloody battle, you still think of inciting and undermining the morale?!”

“If this continues, don’t blame me if I unleash my Fen Dao Furnace without mercy!”

Daoist Yi Jue from the Calamity Transcendence Sect was unafraid in the face of Fang Dinge’s threat. With a chuckle, he replied, “Sect Master Fang, your words are wrong. As they say, first seek victory, not defeat. You always love to gamble. Perhaps you can win countless times, but just one failure, and it will be the end of your path. I ask, who in this world can always win?”

Fang Dinge replied coldly, “Arguments are useless! Facts will prove everything. Besides, is there a better method other than my strategy? Should we all become monsters that are neither human nor ghost like you?”

“Neither human nor ghost, but rather immortal? Since you are unwilling, I shall not force you. But do not count on the Calamity Transcendence Sect.” Yi Jue Daoist smiled enigmatically.

The previously animated expression on the paper man froze instantly, then slowly drifted to the ground.

Yi Jue Daoist from the Calamity Transcendence Sect had transformed into an ordinary sheet of paper.

The remaining people were all silent.

“Hmph, under the influence of that old madman Yi Jue, I predict the entire Calamity Transcendence Sect will eventually turn into paper men. Perhaps…” A dangerous gleam appeared in Fang Dinge’s eyes.
