Chapter 247: 227: Eternal Remembrance (Combined Chapter) _2
Although Xiao Heng felt a bit regretful, he didn’t take back the skeletal remains.
Instead, he placed them back to the location where he originally found the skull from the predecessor, hoping it would be of help to him.
He then discreetly left.
Not long after Xiao Heng’s left, Li Fan’s duplicate revealed itself.
Looking at the skull silently lying on the ground, Li Fan couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation.
“This kid, can’t possibly think that this thing holds any use.”
He, Li Fan, had kept a firm gaze on Ye Feipeng using the Formless Killing Machine.
In the Heavenly-Earthly View, that is definitely just an ordinary human skull. “However, his intentions are genuine. This kid is as pure-hearted as always.” “In comparison, Ye Feipeng, that fatty, is quite nasty.”
With the thought of not wanting to disappoint the child’s heart, Li Fan still prepared to retrieve the skeleton and dispose of it somewhere else later.
Yet, as his duplicate touched the skeleton, Li Fan’s countenance changed slightly.
“What’s this feeling…?
His expression grew serious as he took a closer look.
Despite examining it thoroughly, he still could not find anything amiss.
“Strange…”
“Where on earth is this feeling coming from?
Li Fan frowned, muttering to himself.
Despite his persistent research, he still got nothing.
“This is absolutely a pure cultivator’s skeleton. It’s not disguised as a natural treasure.”
“But there’s no cause for this unusual feeling I’ve got.”
“So where did the problem arise?”
Li Fan put down the skull, placed his hand on it lightly, closed his eyes, and carefully sensed the feeling within his heart.
He pondered for a long time before finally tasting a hint of something.
“This feeling, it’s actually similar to when I first saw the Essence of Heaven and
Earth. ” “Could it be…”
“Hunger?”
“No, it’s not me who’s hungry. It’s…”
Li Fan seemed to realize something, and a strange gleam flashed in his eyes.
“[Real] is hungry.”
In the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan, who was in secluded cultivation, suddenly stood up.
Arranging the ritual in an instant, he reached the Vanguard Realm of Bones in a blink of an eye.
As he touched the young cultivator’s remains, a clear notification from [Real] echoed in his Spirit Consciousness.
“Detected absorbable item: [Legacy of the Eternal Will].”
“Do you want to absorb it?”
A great wave of joy welled up in Li Fan’s heart.
Since discovering the Natural Treasure’s ability to power up [Real] more than six hundred years ago, Li Fan had finally found a second item beneficial to [Real].
“Natural Treasures can enhance Real’s anchoring progress and unlock additional anchor points.”
“I wonder what use this Lezacv of the Eternal Will has.”
Taking a deep breath, Li Fan suppressed the urge to absorb it immediately.
Reclaiming the skeletal remains and returning to the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan prepared for a while and then quietly left the Ten Thousand Immortals Island.
In his past life, the Celestial Doctor’s act of forcefully breaking into the Tianxuan Mirror left a considerable psychological shadow on Li Fan.
But it also made Li Fan realize that the Tianxuan Mirror was not entirely safe.
If the process of [Real] absorbing the Legacy of the Eternal Will caused any reaction,
It would be even more dangerous in the Tianxuan Mirror where cultivators were everywhere.
It would be safer to seclude himself in a deserted place he randomly chose outside.
When it came to [Real], Li Fan decided to be more careful and cautious during normal cultivation.
He randomly chose a Teleportation Array and left the Ten Thousand Immortals Island.
After leaving the island and traveling for more than half a day,
Li Fan dived headfirst into the sea in a seldom-visited area.
While activating the Trace Erasure Talisman, he also transformed [Real] into the [Heart of Sevenfold Subtlety], operating the Secret Technique [Art of Mimic].
After disguising himself, Li Fan dove into a deep trench at the sea floor.
He didn’t go to the deepest spot but excavated a large tunnel in a wall of the trench.
He dug several kilometers into the rock before stopping.
After carving out a space for a person to live deep underground, Li Fan returned to close off the tunnel he dug out.
At the same time, he didn’t forget to cover up his traces using the Secret Technique from the Day Stealing and Sun Replacement Decision.
Once back in the hollow, he set up a Protective Array around it.
Only when all these arrangements were properly in place, did Li Fan took out the skeleton again.
“Detected absorbable item: [Legacy of the Eternal Will].”
“Do you want to absorb it?”
The notification from Real sounded once again.
This time, Li Fan chose yes.
The surrounding space became illusory in an instant.
Gradually, the bones on the ground were broken down into shining white light, absorbed by Li Fan.
The moment the remains completely disappeared, there was a loud shock in Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.
“Tianyang’s life, not weaker than anyone! ”
The stubborn voice of a young child kept echoing in his ears.
Then, Li Fan’s sight went dark, losing his consciousness.
He didn’t know how much time had passed before he slowly woke up.
Haze filled his eyes at first, but clarity soon returned.
Just now, he seemed to have had an incredibly realistic dream.
No, instead of a dream, it felt more as if he had truly possessed another person’s body.
He lived a lengthy life from this person’s perspective.
Throughout this process, he could only watch and listen, unable to control the body’s actions at all.
His thinking ability was also suppressed to the lowest level.
From beginning to end, Li Fan didn’t even realize there was something amiss. But when he woke up, everything he had experienced suddenly retreated like a tidal wave.
He could not remember what he had gone through specifically.
Only some vague images lingered, rapidly being forgotten.
Li Fan did not persist in recalling what exactly had happened during his contact with the [Legacy of the Eternal Will].
Because the prompt from [Real] had appeared again.
“Though the mortal dies, his mementos last forever.”
“[Legacy of the Eternal Will] (Tianyang the True Man) absorption completed.”
“Current use count: 3.”
At the same time, many pieces of information naturally emerged in Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.
Li Fan squinted his eyes to carefully comprehend them.
“By consuming the use count, the memory scenes within the [Legacy of the
Eternal Will] can be simulated.”
“Everything in the scene is indistinguishable from reality.”
“However, to bring back things or information from the scene to reality, one needs to resolve the perseverance sustaining the [Legacy of the Eternal Will]…” “This performance, doesn’t it resemble the Fallen Immortal Realm?”
Li Fan was slightly taken aback.
“Fallen Immortal, memento…”
Li Fan pondered for a while, vaguely forming some plausible guesses.
“Resolve the memento, hmm, perhaps next time I enter the Fallen Immortal Realm, I can try to start from this aspect.”
Temporarily pushing down related thoughts, Li Fan continued to feel the information feedback from Real.
“In the simulated scene, you will completely substitute the owner of the memento.”
“At the same time, you will also receive the related memories and abilities of the memento’s owner.”
“Hmm…this also aligns with the Fallen Immortal Realm.”
“When the number of uses is exhausted, the [Legacy of the Eternal Will] will completely disappear.”
“Perhaps it can be understood this way, [Real] uses the energy contained within the [Legacy of the Eternal Will] to simulate and construct a scaled-down Fallen Immortal Realm.”
“Every simulation and construction is energy-consuming.” “Once the energy runs out, [Legacy of the Eternal Will] will dissipate.”
“However…”
Li Fan had a thought.
According to the prompt from Real, [Legacy of the Eternal Will] cannot be set as a bound item.
But each time he repeated the process, after finding the carrier of the [Legacy of the Eternal Will] again and absorbing it, he could continue to use it.
“Perhaps other cultivators in this realm can use this [Legacy of the Eternal Will] through other methods.”
“But to them, the number of uses is limited. If they cannot bring back the fortune from it to reality within the limited uses.”
“The [Legacy of the Eternal Will] would be completely wasted.”
“But for me, its number of uses…”
“Is unlimited.’
With this thought, Li Fan did not hesitate and triggered Real’s function, [Art of Mimic].
Familiar sensation flowed in.
As if someone had put a sack on his head, Li Fan’s sight became dark, losing his consciousness instantly.
“Tianyang! Tianyang!”
An elderly voice softly called out to Li Fan.
“Tianyang, it’s time to take your medicine…”
A bowl of strangely flavoured soup was poured into his mouth.
It was as if a blazing fire had ignited in his belly, causing immense pain and waking Li Fan instantly.
Weakness.
Extreme weakness.
It felt like he could faint at any moment.
That was Li Fan’s first sensation after waking up..
