My Longevity Simulation Chapter 1159: The Boundless Mirror Immortal Artifact

Sudden bursts of silver light, resembling divine thunderbolts, hammered down in rapid succession.

Beneath the overwhelming heavenly power, the shadowy humanoid concealed inside the Black Mirror transitioned from angry curses to anguished wails, and ultimately to desperate pleas.

From the very beginning, Li Fan’s spirit fragment held no desire to offer any mercy.

Differing from a clone, a spirit fragment lacked the ability to independently absorb spiritual energy from the world to heal itself. Each portion of its accumulated energy, once expended, vanished permanently, demanding actions taken with total precision.

The silver bolts acted as an enormous grinding wheel, relentlessly pulverizing the black misty humanoid.

Grasping the moment, Li Fan’s spirit fragment swiftly executed hand seals, activating the “Formation Refinement” method to attempt seizing dominance over the Black Mirror.

The Black Mirror wasn’t a bound treasure, yet it had been consistently fed with the blood essence of the Sun family’s disciples, establishing a faint but profound bond with the Sun lineage.

In ordinary conditions, only those from the Sun family were capable of wielding or refining it.

Nevertheless, Li Fan’s expertise in formations, fortified by the vast insights gathered across countless cycles through the Final Dissociation Disc, had achieved a profound and inscrutable proficiency.

By superimposing multiple layers of formations, he managed to evade these constraints.

While Li Fan’s clone carried out the refinement of the Black Mirror, Sun Luyuan, linked intimately to it, stayed entirely oblivious.

As moments ticked by gradually, without attracting notice from anyone, possession of the Black Mirror silently shifted.

Li Fan’s spirit fragment solidified into a physical presence, lightly flipping the Black Mirror within his grasp.

He perceived that the black misty humanoid, serving as the Black Mirror’s “artifact spirit,” was huddled inside, shaking with terror and fear toward him.

Li Fan disregarded its inner sentiments. Squinting his gaze, he promptly uncovered the roots of this prized Sun family heirloom.

More than a millennium prior, the Sun siblings, Sun Luyuan and Sun Luyao, encountered a somewhat fractured bronze mirror amid an ancient ruin expedition.

At first, the brothers dismissed the mirror as a mere commonplace relic and gave it scant regard. Yet, upon attempting to auction it at the Tianxuan Mirror, an extraordinary event unfolded.

The Tianxuan Mirror utterly overlooked the bronze mirror’s presence! Even situated within the Tianxuan Mirror’s domain, it failed to register on the trading roster.

Following thorough verification, the brothers recognized they had unearthed a genuine gem.

They proceeded with numerous experiments to uncover the proper way to activate this enigmatic bronze mirror. However, during that era, as mere Golden Core cultivators, they possessed neither the might nor the expertise to succeed.

A century afterward.

Sun Luyuan, the older sibling, located a small-scale Cave-Heaven, planning to leverage it for his breakthrough into the Nascent Soul stage.

Sun Luyao kept watch over his brother. Despite their extreme vigilance, destiny proved fickle, drawing the gaze of a wandering Golden Core peak cultivator.

Though separated by just one realm, the disparity between Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators was vast.

Faced with an imminent chance for advancement, the Golden Core cultivator was unwilling to relinquish it.

To secure his brother’s breakthrough, Sun Luyao staked his existence to fend off the assailant’s attacks.

By the time Sun Luyuan ascended to the Nascent Soul realm and vengefully eliminated the Golden Core cultivator, Sun Luyao lay critically injured, teetering on death’s edge with no hope of recovery.

In the depths of Sun Luyuan’s profound sorrow, he abruptly observed that the bronze mirror he habitually carried finally responded!

At the instant of impending demise, Sun Luyao’s soul fled into the bronze mirror, safeguarding its essence.

Although confined forever within the mirror, it surpassed the finality of death’s divide.

As his soul fused with the bronze mirror, Sun Luyao gained insight into its various secrets.

The artifact, dubbed “Boundless,” stood as a paramount treasure granted to the Xuanhuang Realm’s Boundless Sect by the Immortal Realm in bygone ages.

Yet, with the flow of time, the immortal relic had suffered damage and fragmentation, forfeiting much of its original might.

Even the immortal artifact’s spirit had dissipated, abandoning only a hollow remnant in the mortal plane.

Still, as an item once surpassing the mortal domain, it exhibited remarkable traits even after bonding with a fresh soul.

For example, upon accessing the Tianxuan Mirror, it could covertly siphon assorted data from within.

Moreover, following sufficient energy buildup, the Boundless Mirror could emit subtle projections.

These visions portrayed potential future occurrences!

Though the underlying mechanism remained obscure, this revelation elated the Sun brothers.

Aided by the Boundless Mirror, the Sun siblings launched their storied ascent.

But over time, they detected an unsettling anomaly in the mirror.

Owing to its historical impairment, the mirror’s fragmented state impacted Sun Luyao housed inside. His soul began to erode, and despite Sun Luyuan’s tireless endeavors, the process couldn’t be halted.

Through sheer fortune, by employing his own lifeblood, he succeeded in decelerating his brother’s soul decay.

Had that been the extent, it might have remained tolerable.

Upon reaching the Nascent Soul stage, a cultivator practicing the new method could utilize a Cave-Heaven to approach immortality. Lifeblood could be regenerated through diligence.

The true peril of the Boundless Mirror lay in its propensity for self-ruin.

As though scarred by some catastrophic event from its history, the mirror’s “Boundless Light,” which forecasted future scenes, invariably concluded in identical ruin after several projections.

Boundless obscurity, total devastation, absolute nothingness.

It seemed this doom awaited the entire cosmos, unavoidable regardless of the Boundless Mirror’s divinations.

Each awakening from this apocalypse and subsequent Boundless Light calculation appeared to infect the mirror with the prophetic black ruin, deepening its darkness.

Across over a thousand years, the Sun family, empowered by the Boundless Mirror’s capabilities, evolved from a minor clan into a formidable powerhouse boasting four Dao Integration cultivators.

Sun Luyuan himself progressed from Nascent Soul to Dao Integration cultivator.

Nevertheless, he proved helpless against the Boundless Mirror’s slide toward oblivion.

The sole remedy he identified involved recovering the lost shards of the Boundless Mirror to mend its integrity.

Through the years, following the subtle ties among the fragments, he truly discovered an additional segment of the Boundless Mirror.

But this merely delayed the ruin, without addressing the core problem.

The Sun family’s extraordinary prowess in their climb had inevitably drawn the envy of those with hidden agendas.

Beyond the numerous external schemers, the Sun family’s primary supporter during their ascent was among the supreme leaders in the
