My Simulated Road to Immortality

To become an existence akin to a Star Spirit.

Yet...

Within the Liquid Longsword, it is engraved with the [Form of Living Beings]!

The Form of Living Beings even brought about the emergence of independent consciousness in the Abyss Star Ocean. Its rank is undoubtedly above the Star Sea.

As long as the Form of Living Beings remains intact, even if transformed into a Star Spirit, its life and death will rest in a single thought of Li Fan.

"Star Spirits cannot disobey the Star Sea Consciousness."

"The Form of Living Beings’ creation cannot defy the will of its creator."

"When the two conflict..."

"Let me see who will triumph!"

The chanting of the little Daoist never ceased, as though repeated tens of millions of times with not the slightest hint of unfamiliarity. It was even more flawless than that of most Immortal Boat Elders.

The learning capacity of an Artifact Spirit’s Incarnation truly far exceeded that of ordinary beings.

However, perhaps having been forcibly subjected to the communication of Taija Divine Art once before, the Star Sea Consciousness seemed to harbor a certain degree of "resistance." This time, nearly twice as much time was required compared to before to summon the Star Sea Consciousness.

A purple-gold vortex, as deep as an endless gaze, appeared once more within the Star Sea.

The little Daoist hesitated not, his brush stroke fluid and bold, unleashing the [Equal] Technique with thunderous force.

The Star Sea’s reaction was still one of boundless acceptance.

But compared to before, for the Immortal Boat Elders who had weathered millennia of hardship and the barely month-old little Daoist, whose knowledge and experience were a blank slate, the Star Sea seemed far less intrigued.

Nevertheless, the [Equal] Technique had taken form.

Infinite torrents of Star Sea energy poured down from the void.

With Starlight Tempering Body, the little Daoist gradually transformed into an incandescent figure of blue starlight, resembling a Star Spirit with stars forming connections akin to skeletal structure.

Suddenly, as if struck by the impact of Star Sea Infinite Force, a hidden [Form of Living Beings] pattern within the little Daoist’s body gleamed inexplicably, surfacing onto his exterior.

Under a clash with external forces that could barely count as a rival, the Form of Living Beings finally revealed its true brilliance.

Amidst the black void representing nothingness, it shone simultaneously with all the dazzling hues of the world.

The outermost edge of the pattern carried a faint white glow, also indicative of nothingness.

A black brilliance tinged with seven-colored radiance near the luminous boundary.

Such resplendent and unforgettable hues, upon their emergence, instantly overshadowed the blue of the Star Sea.

Within the purple-gold vortex, the roar of tens of thousands of thunderclaps suddenly resounded.

Even Li Fan, watching from afar, could feel the Star Sea’s fury seething through the violently surging vortex.

Anger though it may be.

The Star Sea Consciousness would not act impulsively.

With thunder loud but rain sparse, the purple-gold vortex vanished faster than upon its arrival.

With the Star Sea’s threat gone, the Form of Living Beings receded back within the body. Only the Star Spirit Daoist remained, standing motionless amidst the Star Sea.

"Did it succeed?"

Unexpectedly, things proved even smoother than anticipated. Li Fan calmed his spirit and focused on sensing the connection with the little Daoist.

The Dominion Power of the Form of Living Beings indeed still persisted.

It remained unaffected by the Star Sea’s original intent and meaning, undiminished.

With a single thought, the little Daoist’s figure moved gracefully, far faster than before, arriving before him.

"Thank you, great lord, for bestowing creation!"

Li Fan quietly observed the Daoist’s newly acquired Star Spirit form.

Through the Dominion Power of the Form of Living Beings, Li Fan could pierce through the dazzling starlight and see its internal intricacies.

Each speck of light resembled a conduit.

A gateway to unknown and mysterious realms, the true source of infinite star force.

Perhaps due to its sheer magnitude surpassing Li Fan’s perceptive abilities, he found himself unable to sense any anomalous presence within.

The restriction imposed by the Star Sea Consciousness had not dissipated. It was merely suppressed by the Form of Living Beings, rendered incapable of influencing the little Daoist temporarily.

Li Fan faintly sensed the endless flood of star force pouring through the conduits. Under the tempering of star force, countless Star Sea Laws were slowly merging, refining the little Daoist’s sword-like body.

"Though it hasn’t reached the level of Immortal Instruments, it is unquestionably a Supreme Sword."

"Fueled by infinite star force, it is capable of powering Immortal Arrays to their maximum capacity, functioning indefinitely."

Li Fan extended his hand, grasping the sword that had instantly reverted to its original form.

No longer in its liquid state, it now radiated with dazzling starlight, resembling the boundless Star Sea itself.

Amidst the shimmering light, countless worlds seemed to rise and fall within. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Having forged such a weapon by his own hand, Li Fan couldn’t help but feel a rare surge of excitement.

"I wonder if this sword could allow me to harness the infinite force of the Star Sea?"

At this thought, a massive surge of star force poured forth from the sword.

Yet this primal, unadulterated Star Sea force differed fundamentally from the spiritual energy cultivated by cultivators.

When it entered Li Fan’s body, not only was it unable to be absorbed and utilized.

Instead, it rampaged like a flood, wreaking havoc within.

Li Fan furrowed his brows slightly, forced to expel it from his body.

"A pity. Still, there must exist Techniques to convert Star Sea force for one’s own use." Li Fan couldn’t help recalling the cultivators of the Taijia Realm who once roamed using Star Sea force.

After a brief contemplation, Li Fan shook his head, muttering inwardly: "How foolish. Even with the infinity of the Star Sea, it remains bound by the limitations of the Form of Living Beings."

"To pursue quantities that cannot transform…"

"Is ultimately the wrong path."

"But the ability to so effortlessly craft a Supreme Realm weapon is undoubtedly a boon for me at this time."

If he could have over a dozen Supreme Realm defenders, even if they were merely Supreme Realm Artifact Spirits, it would suffice for Li Fan to sweep across the Star Sea effortlessly.

With this in mind, Li Fan prepared to repeat the process.

Yet something occurred that perplexed Li Fan.

The Form of Metamorphosis...

He could no longer imprint it upon other objects!

Though the pattern remained vivid within his spirit consciousness, when pushing to action, his hand faltered in the engraving.

"So there exists such a restriction."

After repeated attempts to confirm this limitation, Li Fan felt a sense of regret.

"Originally, I intended to use the Form of Living Beings to create a great army of artifact spirits. To unify the Star Sea and explore beyond its walls."

"After all, creations under absolute control are far more useful than cultivators."

"A shame."

Li Fan shook his head and sighed, tossing the starlight sword into the air.

The little Daoist reverted to human form once more, lowering his head with a reserved demeanor, standing before Li Fan obediently.

Li Fan contemplated aloud: "Material things are infinite, time unending, divisions ever-changing. Now, having gained the infinite divine force of the Star Sea, you are free from mortal constraints, transcending the mundane."

"Henceforth, you shall be called..."

"[Qiu Shui]!"

The little Daoist, upon hearing these words, initially appeared puzzled, unable to discern how infinite, unending, and ever-changing tied to Qiu Shui.

But the great lord’s words were as commands.

The little Daoist dismissed these thoughts, cheerfully bowing his head to the ground: "Thank you, great lord, for bestowing the name!"

Upon accepting the name [Qiu Shui], the aura of the little Daoist subtly shifted.

He seemed to become more like a naturally nurtured living being.

As the creator, Li Fan found a surge of enlightenment swelling suddenly within his spirit.

If one day, Qiu Shui the little Daoist were to fully transform into genuine life, transcending its fate as a creation.

Then Li Fan could once again engrave and establish a new Form of Living Beings.

Li Fan contemplated for a long time, his expression enigmatic.

"Hmph."

"Pure creations are still preferable."

Returning to the Xuanhuang World, Li Fan discovered Tianyang had already awakened from enlightenment.

Though merely a puppet pieced together from various materials, it now emanated faint traces of transcendence and ethereal elegance.

It was just half a step shy of the True Immortal countenance Li Fan had encountered.

Li Fan speculated that if Tianyang were to appear now in Xuanhuang World, it might provoke throngs of cultivators to kneel fervently in worship.

Next, Li Fan let Qiu Shui and Tianyang spar.

Though Qiu Shui, armed with infinite star force, powered the All Beings Great Array of Xuan Huang theoretically capable of overpowering Tianyang completely.

Li Fan noted that even the Immortal-level Illusionary Formation that had trapped the Celestial Doctor for ages proved ineffective against Tianyang.

In battle mode, Tianyang effortlessly dismissed everything generated within the illusory realm.

Even past revelations of Body Transformation Dao failed to entangle him much.

Instead, the illusions refined Tianyang’s heart, making it increasingly honed and perfect.

Soaring through the raging storm of Qiu Shui’s frenzied Returning to Void Great Array, Tianyang landed a fierce punch upon Qiu Shui.
