Chapter 1672 -1392: Trifurcation of the New World_3
Li Fan persisted, releasing four more Dao Yi Bugs.
Although they still vanished in an instant, only Li Fan noticed that the Dao Yi Bugs lasted slightly longer than before.
The self-sacrifice of the Dao Yi Bugs was not in vain; they would transfer information about the Tianxing Light Lotus back to their swarm.
Subsequent bugs would use this information to alter themselves in hopes of adapting to the radiance of the Tianxing Light Lotus.
The number of Dao Yi Bugs multiplied exponentially.
When the swarm reached a million in total, the Dao Yi Bugs were able to evolve themselves and fuse into the dreamy radiance of the Tianxing Light Lotus.
“It seems, despite developing their own Spirit Wisdom, this creation of the Star Sea remains confined within the limits of Spiritual Power. After evolving over tens of millions of generations, the Dao Yi Bugs can fully decode it.”
Gazing at the flowing ink-like shadows invading the Tianxing Light Lotus, Li Fan nodded with some satisfaction.
“Perhaps only Immortal Spirit Energy, that utterly transcendent force belonging to an entirely different realm, could completely deter the erosion of the Dao Yi Bugs.”
The miraculous efficacy of Dao Yi Bugs needs no elaboration.
Born out of nothingness, they can evolve Spiritual Energy. They can even devour Cave Heavens and worlds, replacing them entirely with their swarm.
Yet, as Li Fan’s strength grew increasingly formidable, the Dao Yi Bugs, despite their endless usefulness, gradually became less significant.
It was only in rare situations like today that they could be utilized again.
Li Fan had once thought about cultivating an even higher form of Dao Yi Bugs.
However, once infused with the Essence of Source Power, the Dao Yi Bugs lost their unique characteristics. As for the next tier of Immortal Spirit Energy…
Even Li Fan himself lacked access to it and had to rely on the legacy of the Great Heavenly Sovereign.
“Once I achieve Unity-Path, perhaps I’ll be able to provide a suitable environment for cultivating Dao Yi Bugs.”
In the Immortal World, besides True Immortals, there are countless creations and servants.
Li Fan firmly believed that when he attained immortality, he could elevate everything under his command to celestial heights along with him!
The erosion of the Dao Yi Bugs was as silent and pervasive as spring rain.
When the entire lotus seed had been quietly transformed into Dao Yi Bugs, the Tianxing Light Lotus’s core remained unaware.
It only vaguely sensed unease, its luminous brilliance flickering unsteadily.
The lotus seed’s defenses had been completely disabled.
Li Fan first secured his primary target—the Trident Tree.
Feeling the reaction from Hai Zhen, Li Fan’s heart stirred: “As expected, it’s still effective.”
“However, it’s not sufficient to support a full simulation of an entire lifetime.”
“Just twelve hours?”
Li Fan’s eyes gleamed with an unusual spark of excitement.
“If my guess is correct, using the Trident Tree for simulation won’t directly end this lifetime.”
“Instead, everything that transpires over the next twelve hours in the simulation will appear within my Spirit Consciousness, as though I had personally experienced it.”
“I wonder, will I be able to bring back the gains?”
“Even if I can’t, this is still akin to a life-saving insurance policy!”
Li Fan suppressed the urge to use the Trident Tree immediately.
He continued to manipulate the Dao Yi Bugs, eroding and stealing the items stored within the Tianxing Light Lotus’s seed.
It truly deserved its reputation as the Star Sea Supreme Treasure entrusted to the Immortal Boat.
When Li Fan stole three items in a row, the Tianxing Light Lotus instinctively curled itself up in response to the intrusion.
The second layer of the Mi Chang plunged into complete darkness, its dreamy brilliance vanishing entirely.
Even Li Fan could no longer sense the presence of the Tianxing Light Lotus’s aura.
It seemed to have completely disappeared!
The unusual movements of the Tianxing Light Lotus also drew the attention of the Members of the Immortal Ark.
Li Fan faintly detected several familiar presences rapidly approaching—led by Elder Jian Dusheng and Elder Zhong Daogong.
“And faint traces of Thousand-Eyes Barren God’s aura.”
“It seems that prolonged internal strife has kept their tension at an unrelenting peak.”
Li Fan smiled faintly, and under the dim glimmer of Sword Shadow, he fled the scene of the crime.
Following the second theft from the Mi Chang, the Immortal Boat was once again embroiled in a storm of bloodshed and chaos.
Broken Immortal Tower and Immortal Axis Institute hurled accusations at each other, igniting ten years’ worth of accumulated enmity.
A brutal battle unfolded within the Mystic Immortal Boat.
Meanwhile, the instigator of all this, Li Fan, had already returned to the Da Xuan Minor World of the Xuanhuang Realm.
Other than the Trident Tree, Li Fan had taken two other items: the Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldron.
And the Broken-Winged Ashen Bird.
These three items were all relics of Sun Piaomiao.
Within the second layer of the Mi Chang, all treasures had been shrouded by the Tianxing Light Lotus, making it impossible to sense their actual functions.
However, the true value of two out of these three items, excluding the Broken-Winged Ashen Bird, had already been verified in his past life.
Considering the limited time he had, bringing them out was the rational choice.
“The Trident Tree and Little Pharma Sovereign Cauldron are certainly no ordinary objects.”
“The Broken-Winged Ashen Bird likely holds hidden potential as well, though I have yet to uncover it.”
