My Longevity Simulation Chapter 1078: Xuanhuang Heavenly Fate Bird

Inside the bird egg, Li Fan started reflecting on strategies to overcome the [Beast Taming Sect's Upheaval].

The visions within the Fallen Immortal Realm were designed to evaluate if the illusion's participant truly deserved the position of Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable, so Li Fan needed to dive completely into portraying the Xuanhuang Celestial Venerable during his actions.

Ningyuan's effortless obtainment of the longevity fruit showed that the initial scene examined "benevolence."

Regarding this next scene...

"Interactions between demon beasts and humans? Or the steps to follow amid a massive catastrophe?"

Memories from earlier trips to the Fallen Immortal Realm raced through Li Fan's thoughts in sequence.

As Li Fan mulled over these ideas, time passed silently.

Before long, a faint beam of light pierced the total darkness. Xu Ke's voice echoed right away.

Li Fan adeptly squeezed out via the opening, then gobbled up the broken eggshell entirely.

"Oh, right, quickly run the Beast Taming True Secret!" Shortly after, Xu Ke smacked his forehead and snapped to attention.

He employed his method, striving to tame the fresh Heavenly Fate Black Bird standing before him.

Yet, to Xu Ke's complete shock, his effort fell flat!

"Kid, you believe you can dominate me with that?"

Upon catching the abrupt mental transmission, Xu Ke paused briefly, then cautiously checked his surroundings. Finding nothing suspicious, he fixed a disbelieving stare on Li Fan.

"Act normal; pay close attention!" Li Fan warned sternly.

"I am the Xuanhuang Heavenly Fate by nature. Predicting an immense disaster looming over the world, I've taken this form to descend. To thwart the crisis..."

Li Fan wove a story claiming he was the Xuanhuang Heavenly Fate's incarnation, here to rescue all beings from peril, which left the young Xu Ke stunned and persuaded.

Once Li Fan detailed Xu Ke's early life events precisely, the boy Xu Ke became entirely persuaded.

"So Mr. Bai is an incarnation of the Heavenly Fate too, a chosen hero against the calamity?" Xu Ke's eyes bulged wide.

"That's right." Li Fan lounged idly atop Xu Ke's head.

"This heavenly disaster will be horrifying beyond measure. Even with the Xuanhuang Heavenly Fate stepping in directly, success isn't assured. For that reason, it divides into two parts: one operating openly, the other in secrecy. He forged ahead; based on my foresight, he's likely reached the Longevity Immortal Heavenly Sovereign stage already."

Xu Ke stood dumbfounded at once: "Qi Condensation, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core..."

"What exactly is the Longevity Immortal Heavenly Sovereign realm?"

"Beyond Golden Core Lord come four stages: Nascent Soul True Lord, Soul Transformation True Monarch, Dao Integration Immortal Sage, and Longevity Immortal Heavenly Sovereign." Li Fan kindly explained the fundamentals of cultivation realms to him.

"No... that can't be, can it? Mr. Bai plainly mentioned he was just a mortal earlier." Xu Ke's mouth fell open, still skeptical.

"Hmph, how could you mortals grasp the rapid progress of a Heavenly Fate incarnation? Shifting to Soul Transformation in a blink is no big deal. But as the hidden one, I can't draw such attention. Otherwise, oddities would get spotted for sure." Li Fan remarked with a touch of disappointment.

"Still, my advancement outpaces yours by far."

Even as he spoke, Xu Ke felt Li Fan's energy surge wildly.

"You've really advanced to Qi Condensation?" He stared in awe, finally accepting the claims fully.

Li Fan brushed him off and just ordered: "Go fetch me some food. I'm famished."

Xu Ke dashed off into the Beast Taming Sect's wooded hills. Meanwhile, Li Fan kept up his cultivation and worked the Xuan Bird Clan's [Heaven's Mandate in Mine] divine ability.

Having practiced cultivation many times before, it came effortlessly to him now.

After merging with the Spiritwood Realm and mastering a world's Heavenly Dao completely, Li Fan developed his personal insights into drawing in heavenly fortune to flip heavenly fate.

Additionally, from watching things unfold lately, Li Fan realized this time's Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao lacked the deep resentment and caution toward cultivators seen in future eras.

The pushback when using the [False Misconversion Heavenly Dao] divine ability was barely there, posing almost no danger.

Were it not for his newborn state and fragile form, Li Fan might have surged straight to Golden Core in a single push.

Luckily, the demon beast body proved incredibly sturdy. With plenty of sustenance, rapid development was inevitable.

In this way, Li Fan and Xu Ke stealthily wandered the Beast Taming Sect's hills and woods, grabbing and consuming every useful item they found.

To Li Fan, the barriers guarding those spiritual fields and precious herbs seemed laughably basic, shatterable in seconds.

"Lord Black Bird, aren't we overdoing the eating?" Li Fan savored the bounty, but Xu Ke trembled in fear.

Within under a month, they had stripped the Beast Taming Sect's wooded areas of all prime treasures.

By now, the sect sensed irregularities and sent out a few elders to probe.

Thankfully, they hadn't slipped up yet.

All the same, the inexperienced Xu Ke had never pulled off such antics. He spent his days in anxious worry, too afraid to challenge Li Fan's demands.

"Silly boy. Isn't all this for rescuing the Xuanhuang Realm? These trivial supplies mean nothing. The real glory comes from trailing the true dragon! If the rescue works, the Beast Taming Sect will shine as the top ally. The gains will multiply a millionfold!" Li Fan smacked Xu Ke with a paw.

"Is... is that true?" Xu Ke replied, torn between doubt and trust.

Li Fan stayed hidden within the Beast Taming Sect, drawing on its hidden assets to strengthen himself. His power soared rapidly, nearing the Nascent Soul stage.

Around then, a cultivator called Song Yang, greedy for the Heavenly Fate Black Bird, tried to follow them covertly.

But Li Fan triggered his heavenly fate divine ability outright, twisting Song Yang's luck.

Song Yang's dual-headed black snake spirit beast went berserk suddenly and swallowed him whole. Later, Beast Taming Sect disciples teamed up to kill the black snake.

That lone danger disappeared completely.

Days flew by quickly, bringing the moment when Mr. Bai would reach the Beast Taming Sect.

Li Fan, following his routine, started acting mysteriously again.

"I sense Mr. Bai approaching." That day, he sent a mental message out of nowhere.

"Huh? Mr. Bai's heading to the Beast Taming Sect? To meet me and Senior Brother Lu Ya?" Xu Ke lifted his head sharply, surprise lighting his face.

"Hmph, such ego on a small fry. Mr. Bai's busy saving the world; he won't linger on a kid like you." Li Fan jabbed sharply.

"Alright." Xu Ke sagged at the words.

Yet he brightened soon enough, gazing skyward with keen anticipation for Mr. Bai's coming.

Li Fan's eyes narrowed too.

"From landing here until now, barely over two months have gone by. No matter the pace of power growth, meddling in the coming fight... or massacre... remains out of reach."

"Thus, unlocking the stalemate probably hinges on the trip to Nanming Sacred Mountain. Still, maybe a few moves are possible."

Li Fan eyed the Xu Ke under him, deep in contemplation.

True to past runs, after half a day, Mr. Bai showed up on schedule.

The Beast Taming Sect's guardian azure dragon detected the outsider's presence and promptly manifested, halting Mr. Bai's way.
