My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 2248 - 1695: Return to Nature Once More (Part 2)

Sure, here is the translation of the provided text:

"I’m afraid it will only become more and more reckless."

Lord Guardian Hill’s face was fraught with worry.

"Before I came, the Void Realm had already stretched out for nearly over a hundred thousand years. If this place Mountain Sea sinks a little more, the Grand Plan of Reunion will fail."

Li Fan clarified the severity of the situation, then asked, "In Lord Guardian Hill’s opinion, of All Saints on the Other Shore, who can be the first breakthrough point?"

"Though I’m unworthy, I am willing to risk my life and turn the tide."

Li Fan’s grand justice sharply contrasted with the rampaging All Saints on the Other Shore.

Upon hearing this, Lord Guardian Hill couldn’t help but be moved with respect.

After pondering for a moment, he said solemnly: "All Saints’ strengths have long been divided. From the strongest to the weakest, they are Stealing Mechanism, Gui Ming, Duan Chen, Industry Judgment, Xing Cha..."

Li Fan said aloud: "Then let’s start with Stealing Mechanism!"

Lord Guardian Hill was somewhat puzzled.

Li Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly: "To deal with such individuals, one must use Thunder tactics to intimidate. If we start with the weaker ones, it would instead show we are fearful. Conversely..."

"If the strongest among them is usurped first, then the rest of the group will not be a threat. They will only scatter like a loose pile of sand, allowing us to defeat them individually." Li Fan spoke confidently.

Lord Guardian Hill listened and seemed to indeed think it made sense.

"But the Stealing Mechanism Saint possesses extraordinary strength. Every living being in the world, and even the Qi Destiny of Mountain Sea, can be stolen by him. Being against him is like standing in opposition to Mountain Sea..."

Li Fan snorted coldly, wielding the wooden staff in his hand: "Mountain Sea can barely protect itself now. What does it matter if we are against him? Can it be that he dares go against us? Lord Guardian Hill should know, we came to save Mountain Sea."

"In the desperate situation of Mountain Sea’s collapse, opportunities, Qi Destiny, fate—all are in chaos. Only survival, staying alive, is the truly effective one."

Li Fan surveyed widely, absorbing the chaotic scene of Mountain Sea’s turmoil and possibilities continuously disintegrating.

Faced with this Apocalypse, not only did he not feel discomfort or a sense of crisis.

On the contrary, he felt an unprecedented freedom, as if the shackles on his head in the past were removed.

"In the past, when I was in Xuanhuang World, there was Law Transmission above my head."

"Leaving Xuanhuang World, there was Hungry Immortal above my head."

"Leaping over the High Wall, there were possibly Dark Heavenly Doctor and Hei Subai outside."

"And stepping out of Primordial, there were All Saints on the Other Shore stationed."

"It was truly uncomfortable."

"Until now..."

Li Fan’s eyes flickered with mysterious light.

"Three Saints. The greatest threat is dead."

"Their treasures have also fallen into my hands."

"Without restrictions, I can act as I wish. Hehehe..."

Even now, Li Fan did not have a simple reason to depart, for it was pure.

To slay Saints.

To slay Saints with just reasons and dignity.

Such an opportunity that comes once in a thousand years, how could he bear to miss it?

Li Fan did not forget that during the simulation, he was scrutinized by All Saints on the Other Shore.

"The matter with Three Saints will be discussed later. First, let’s collect some interest from the others."

"Moreover..."

Li Fan felt a stir in his heart, a panel appeared before him.

"Return to the Real Truth. I wonder, if the Saints on the Other Shore can be slain, would my name be left among them?"

Though the thought was great, specific actions still needed careful consideration.

"Stealing Mechanism is a very cautious person. Given his personality, he might always hide behind the scenes and sit back to reap the fisherman’s benefit." solemnly stated Lord Guardian Hill.

"No problem. To defeat the enemy, one must strike first."

Li Fan was well-prepared and sent a secret message.

"This..." Lord Guardian Hill hesitated upon hearing it.

"Trust me, Guardian Hill, we will achieve victory in battle."

Lord Guardian Hill’s expression shifted before he finally agreed with gritted teeth.

Boom, boom, boom...

Shortly after, massive explosion sounds erupted from Mountain Sea’s chaotic currents.

Amidst the collision of light and shadows, countless possibilities initially in a state of chaos and disorder were wiped out instantly.

The already precarious form of Mountain Sea suddenly became even more critical.

As if creating a chain reaction, large parts of Mountain Sea collapsed into the abyss.

Waves continued in the Void Realm, seemingly in celebration of the imminent victory.

And a voice, both startled and furious, echoed through them: "Well done, Guardian Hill! I thought you were known for your great morality, but it turns out you are nothing but an outright hypocrite!"

"I entrust my life to you, yet you covet my treasures like the other beasts!"

The speaker was Li Fan.

At this moment, he was as pale as paper, his clothes in tatters. It looked like he had suffered a serious injury.

And opposite him, Lord Guardian Hill’s expression was darker than ever.

Before Li Fan could continue, he pointed his finger at him.

In the midst of mountain collapses and tidal waves, Guardian Hill’s power appeared more prominent.

He stood immobile, and the tumult from the Mountain Sea collapse was all subdued underfoot, conquered and utilized by him.

That single point seemed to carry the force of mountain and sea breaking apart.

Like a thousand-foot tidal wave rushing down, intent on utterly crushing Li Fan.

At the critical moment, an iron shovel split open the massive wave, saving Li Fan from within.

"Go!"

Li Fan shouted fiercely.

The Mountain Lian staff transformed into a beam of light, enveloping Li Fan, and shot straight out of Mountain Sea.

It abandoned Mountain Sea behind, fleeing directly away.

Of course, Lord Guardian Hill wouldn’t let the prey slip out easily, and he followed closely.

Within Mountain Sea, the other saints witnessed this bizarre scene, and none followed hastily.

But with the two beams of light already flying out of Mountain Sea.

Entering the Void Realm, seemingly never to return, made them restless.

"Humph, I thought Guardian Hill was truly a man of morality. Turns out he’s just like us in disposition."

"This is common sense. There aren’t any Saints, perfect people in the world; even Mountain Sea’s Three Saints merely wield their power to bully others!"

"Wonderful, wonderful. Initially, I found Guardian Hill a bit distasteful, but now he’s wearing a mask that deceived the world. This does align with my taste. Worthy of close association, hahaha!"

"Guardian Hill’s changes are too immense, beware of deceit."

"Deceit? I think not, he has merely revealed his true form!"

"Regardless, Mountain Sea is about to fall. This Tao Annihilation, fierce beyond precedent. Our slim chance for survival lies with the Three Saints’ treasures. Only by catching up with that lad..."

"They actually have the audacity to call us beasts."

...

As if suppressed for long, All Saints transformed into beams of light and fled toward where Li Fan had vanished.

Without those ferocious spirits causing trouble, Mountain Sea instead returned to tranquility for the time being.

Boasting countless years of foundation, it surprisingly stabilized temporarily in the face of the Tao Annihilation’s successive impacts.

Of course, it was only temporary.

The outcome of the upcoming battle outside the Void Realm would determine its fate.
