My Simulated Road to Immortality

Among the various immortals in the Sea of the Northern Stars, Divine Thought is considered to be the most personable and well-liked. His voice and smile still linger in our minds, yet at this moment, Chaos and Benevolent Transformation sensed his Taoist Aura from the blood-red ring in Li Fan's hand.

The meaning of this is self-evident.

A former companion has turned into the nourishment for an artifact.

Even these two strongmen of the nameless realm could not help but feel emotions of compassion and fear.

But upon seeing Li Fan's icy and merciless gaze, they instantly snapped out of their mourning. The deceased are gone, and ensuring their own survival is the most important now!

Benevolent Transformation naturally continued, "Since Divine Thought is no longer with us, for a short period, our connection with Guangwu Star Sea can only depend on me. When I returned to the Sea of the Northern Stars before, I did not delve deeply into the Dao Network but rather maintained remote contact with Chaos to strategize."

"Therefore, the Great Net currently does not have any knowledge of our expedition of true immortals being almost completely wiped out."

"Although so much time has passed without a response from them, it is bound to raise suspicions. At most, they would guess that we are caught in a fierce battle or stalemate, but certainly wouldn't believe that we've been fully and easily defeated. Otherwise, they wouldn't have agreed to the crusade in the first place..."

Benevolent Transformation analyzed methodically, "In this situation, Chaos and I could send a request for support signal to the Great Net. From both the overall battlefield dynamics and the previous investment cost, the Great Net is highly likely to come to our aid. And when they arrive here, with the senior's methods, they will easily be captured..."

Chaos added, "Though it sounds like an extremely simple plan, the key is how to convince the Great Net. Over the past period, Benevolent Transformation and I have already made enough preparations, constantly maintaining false battle reports to convey to the Great Net. They seem to have not detected anything strange, even proactively asking if we need support."

"Although the Great Net is strong, nearly half of its power resides within that Dao Network. If we can deceive it out from the Dao Network, capturing it would be twice as effective with half the effort," Benevolent Transformation also said.

...

After the two nameless true immortals briefly explained, Li Fan looked towards Chaos and praised with a smile, "It seems you had plans to submit all along. Not bad, not bad."

Rubbing the blood-red ring with his fingers, Li Fan paced to stand near one of the Heavenly Pillars in the space.

"Your plan might barely be feasible, but as far as I'm concerned, it has one fatal flaw."

His eyes turned to the Heavenly Pillar, his tone mysterious.

Chaos and Benevolent Transformation, the two immortals, tightened their expressions, "We hope the Great Venerable can provide guidance."

"Just like your confident plan to capture me, in your scheme, as long as the Great Net is drawn out, you are certain you can defeat and suppress it."

"You overestimate your strength while underestimating your opponent."

"Since you don't know their origin, background, or path, how can you be so sure that my involvement will guarantee their capture?"

"Why wouldn't it be me inviting the wolf in and suffering a terrible defeat due to underestimation?"

"Or perhaps, this is the true hope in your hearts? Feigning allegiance while actually staging a trap within a trap to overturn the situation?"

Li Fan's voice grew increasingly cold.

Meanwhile, Chaos and Benevolent Transformation, the two nameless true immortals, shook with emotion.

"Great Venerable, please don't misunderstand! We wouldn't dare harbor such insincere thoughts," Benevolent Transformation hurriedly clarified.

Chaos reaffirmed loyalty, "The junior wholeheartedly considers for you, Venerable, my heart is witnessed by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth."

In their hearts, both secretly lamented.

This legendary Great Venerable seems to have changed significantly after surviving the Immortal World's disaster. He has become suspicious, capricious, and brutal.

Compared to the tyrants among previous Immortal Emperors, he even surpasses them.

"Whatever you're thinking, I'm not interested in knowing. It's not important."

"In any case, you follow whoever wins."

"Since so, I have my own plans."

Li Fan stretched out his hand, seemingly touching the Infinite Sky Pillar, but in fact, the Net of the Infinite Aspects had suddenly activated, enveloping the Heavenly Pillar and the Grand Master Stone Statue within.

Although he has comprehended the Wuji Dao for a hundred years, he is certainly still inferior to the Grand Master or Wuji itself.

"Since the enemy is there, just strike forward."

Amidst the thunderous roar, the Infinite Sky Pillar was taken down by Li Fan, continually shrinking, eventually transforming into a gray-white stone stick.

A figure flickered in front of the space.

It was Li Buren summoned to come.

"Catch this!"

Li Fan directly tossed the Infinite Sky Rod to his clone.

Considering other possible existence of the Saint Emperor Li Fan, this time, he had to let the clone undertake the task again.

Also practicing the Net of the Infinite Aspects, Li Buren held the Infinite Sky Pillar with no difficulty.

With the protection and empowerment of Wuji Dao, any primordial Taoist spell or potential cannot approach Li Buren.

"Unless this Great Net is also a guest from other possibilities. Otherwise, as long as the Infinite Stone Rod is in hand, the clone is already in an invincible position."

"More than enough for defense, but slightly lacking in offense."

Li Fan pondered, then produced a pair of water-green swords and knives from his mouth.

"Hand this treasure to you as well."

"If you still can't succeed, then swiftly escape. If escape is impossible..."

"Simply self-destruct then."

This instruction was given only in Spirit Consciousness.

Neither Benevolent Transformation nor Chaos was aware.

In their perspective, they only saw Li Fan distributing the Supreme Treasures without any reluctance.
