Chapter 1917: Chapter 1515: Gaining Eternal Creation

According to common logic, with the power displayed by this green fragment in the scene, the aging Lord Guardian Hill should absolutely be unable to approach it.

It was even questionable whether Lord Guardian Hill could survive in the Infinite Sea at that time.

But perhaps it was the green fragment’s own choice, a destiny foreordained in the unseen.

In any case, Lord Guardian Hill managed to approach the fragment unharmed.

The fragment radiated brilliantly at the bottom of the Infinite Sea, momentarily freezing the surrounding turbulent whirlpool. Because of this, Lord Guardian Hill could traverse layers of obstacles and reach the green fragment.

Subsequently, although the whirlpool resumed its motion, even more ferociously roaring, it could no longer harm the life-enveloped Lord Guardian Hill.

No matter how time flowed or how the world’s Tao appeared and disappeared, it could not affect the [Longevity]-bearing Lord Guardian Hill in the slightest.

This is true longevity!

With this way, one can traverse mountains and seas, eternally free from worries.

The gray whiskers turned black again, and all signs of aging and decay disappeared. The rejuvenated Lord Guardian Hill walked out effortlessly from the depths of the Infinite Sea. Wherever he passed, the substantive green light condensed into a path crossing mountains and seas.

Even faced with mountains’ roaring and seas’ raging, this Road to Immortality seemed of no great consequence.

After Lord Guardian Hill returned from the Infinite Sea, the endless green light on the Road to Immortality also disintegrated and scattered across the sky.

Some of it was swallowed by the waves and entered the endless possibilities nurtured within the Infinite Sea. But Lord Guardian Hill remained entirely uncaring.

Returning to the edge of the Mountain Sea, the familiar place he had guarded for almost a lifetime, Lord Guardian Hill sat cross-legged as usual, guarding the hill, gazing at the sea.

As always.

…

As Li Fan immersed himself in the imagery of the past, the voice of Dao Life gently came to his ear.

“The master is the true owner of [Longevity]. However, he has no intention of monopolizing it; he’s willing to share it with me. This is because of the infinite attribute of longevity.”

“Just like the infinity of Mountain Sea, those who attain longevity achieve boundless lifespan. Even if shared among all living beings in the world, each receives infinity.”

“The Method of Ascending to Immortality connects Mountain Sea, and this mystique of longevity links longevity itself!”

“It is said: Mountain Sea bears things, lone stars arise. Heaven and Earth resource beginnings, longevity prospers. Worlds lay like a chessboard, Wanspirit illuminate. Once connected in comprehension, in pursuit of the ultimate Tao. Whatever imagined inevitably comes, every thought becomes reality…”

Li Fan held his breath, his focus unprecedentedly sharp. He memorized every word of Dao Life’s narration and continually revisited and admired it.

On the surface, it seemed not just a simple description of the Divine Technique. It resembled a poem, composed and sung by Lord Guardian Hill as he guarded the hill by the Mountain Sea.

The ancient and timeless voice transcended mountains and seas, pierced through time, and fell into Li Fan’s ears at this moment.

With the eyes of Lord Guardian Hill, Li Fan seemed to witness the ebb and tide of years in the boundless Mountain Sea. The passage of time in the phantom was as if real. Li Fan vaguely sensed its erosion upon him.

Yet the song of longevity by the guardian hill firmly protected him, sparing Li Fan from the suffering of time’s passage.

In motion and stillness, in annihilation and life, everlasting annihilation…

The various differences made Li Fan vaguely comprehend what longevity meant.

“The infinity of the sea. The power of the mountain.”

“And also Hai Zhen, longevity.”

“It seems these Mountain Sea level creations, each represent a supreme power unique to themselves. Upper Mountain can create True Immortals in the world. And the Infinite Sea can make a True Immortal’s power leap, gaining infinite attributes.”

“My own Hai Zhen…”

“In a flash, it can overturn mountains and seas, return to the past. False becomes true, all things may be dreams and bubbles, or transformed true with a thought.”

Li Fan couldn’t help but recall his experiences using [Hai Zhen]. Each realization of true and false changes was like the former saints of Mountain Lian and Gui Hai, creating and forming the Immortal World.

“In truth, the reasoning is the same. All begin from nothing, paving a path. It’s just that cultivating immortality, longevity, Hai Zhen… these three paths ultimately reach different destinations.”

Li Fan reflected on his experiences and pondered the longevity poem left by Lord Guardian Hill.

He surprisingly found that perhaps it was as he guessed. The principles among the three paths have many intersecting points. He had already traveled a long distance on the two roads.

Now, as Li Fan entered the third great way, with a slight reflection, he was as familiar as if he were home.

Then, under Dao Life’s extremely shocked gaze, a towering green pillar suddenly emerged from around Li Fan.

The burgeoning vitality unleashed therein was a billion times more than the nearly century-long accumulation within the High Wall. In merely a few breaths, life and death were reversed. What was once a realm of death silence, only covered by life in the Xuanhuang World and Primordial Immortal Realm, the Abyss Star Ocean, no longer darkened but filled with brightness.

Any living being glimpsing this green light would at least see a tenfold increase in lifespan. And those blessed by Heavenly Luck, who happened to absorb the few scattered remnants of the green pillar, have been transformed into the so-called Immortal Species of the Mortal World, living as long as Heaven and Earth, imperishable through myriad tribulations.

As for Li Fan…

On the surface, everything seemed calm.

But staring at the Hai Zhen panel, his heart quietly surged with a mighty wave.

The doomsday countdown-like age numbers that once appeared had now vanished.

They had transformed into a particularly peculiar green symbol.

It resembled a fragment of a certain thing yet possessed its distinctive entirety. Though appearing with only a few strokes, Li Fan found he couldn’t fully behold it.
