My longevity simulation

Originally, seeing “Sun Xingwang” return to normal, Mo Rubin couldn’t help but show a hint of joy on his face.

But what made him extremely uncomfortable was that Li Fan stopped speaking mid-sentence.

The other party’s expression suddenly became utterly bewildered, his eyes empty and devoid of anything.

Only after a long while did a faint glimmer appear, and he instinctively looked around.

“You are…” Li Fan stared at Mo Rubin before him, asking with some confusion.

This stark contrast made Mo Rubin take a deep breath.

Although he knew that the technique Sun Xingwang practiced was extremely strange, the most peculiar among the Twelve Dharma Kings, its bizarreness to this extent still sent a chill through him.

“However, Brother Xingwang’s thoughts align perfectly with mine.”

“Hmm… as expected, he deliberately guided the Dharma Transmitter [Feng] to my resting place that day, intending for me to infiltrate the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance.”

While Mo Rubin was deep in thought, Li Fan seemed to recognize him as well.

“So, it’s Brother Bin.”

“Why are we here?”

Li Fan surveyed his surroundings.

Mo Rubin let out a slight sigh, thinking to himself, “At least he still remembers me. That saves me from wasting more words.”

He then briefly explained to Li Fan how he had taken the place of the Dharma Transmitter Feng, entered the upper echelons of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, and was plotting to seize the Xuantian Treasure Mirror.

“The Xuantian Treasure Mirror is the only immortal artifact refined with the utmost effort by the Xuantian King in the past. Although it has been used by the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance over the years, from my observations, the Alliance has not fully gained control over it. Instead, they have reached some sort of cooperative relationship.”

“As long as we can regain control of the Xuantian Treasure Mirror, it’s highly likely we can use it to locate the Xuantian King.”

Taking advantage of Li Fan’s moment of clarity, Mo Rubin explained concisely.

“In my current state, knowing this is useless. What do you need me to do?” Li Fan asked cooperatively, showing self-awareness.

Mo Rubin was greatly pleased and whispered, “In the current Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, the Dharma Transmitter lineage and the Mirror Holder lineage hold power separately, keeping each other in check. Additionally, there is the [Illusory True Sage] lineage, hidden in the shadows, acting as a balance.”

Li Fan frowned slightly, “The upper echelons of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance are actually this complex? And what are these Mirror Holders and Illusory True Sages…”

“I’ve never heard of them before.”

Mo Rubin nodded slightly, “I only learned of this after taking over the body of the Dharma Transmitter Feng. These three power-holding lineages rarely appear in public, so it’s normal for outsiders to be unaware of their details.”

“The so-called Dharma Transmitters are the surviving cultivators from the group that followed the Immortal Ancestor in the past, spreading the New Method.”

“As for the Mirror Holders, as the name suggests, they control the power of the Xuantian Treasure Mirror. Over the years, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance has never given up on their plan to fully possess the Xuantian Treasure Mirror. Using the methods left by the Immortal Ancestor, they have been gradually eroding and increasing their control over it.”

“As for the most mysterious third lineage, the Illusory True Sages…”

“I’ve had little contact with them during this time. However, they seem to be connected to a creation called [Era] and the beast clan’s Emperor Sanmo. By leveraging supreme deductive power and some kind of illusory yet realistic force, they can turn the virtual into reality, summoning countless powerful cultivators to fight out of thin air…”

Mo Rubin shared the intelligence he had gathered so far with Li Fan.

After listening, Li Fan waved his hand impatiently, “What’s the plan?”

“It seems that even as a Dharma Transmitter, seizing the Xuantian Treasure Mirror is no easy task.”

Mo Rubin nodded, not denying it, “However, my plan has already begun to show results.”

“The Xuantian Treasure Mirror possesses its own intelligence. Since it is not easy to control, we will force it to cooperate with us willingly.”

“Brother Xingwang, you previously managed to transmit the Xuantian Spirit-Sealing Formation diagram to the interior of the Immortal Alliance through some means. With my assistance, the lineage of the Dharma Transmitters is now stirring with excitement.”

“They are attempting to use the power of the Xuantian Spirit-Sealing to fully control the Tianxuan Mirror, thereby completely crushing the lineage of the Mirror Holders…”

“But you and I both know that the Xuantian Spirit-Sealing Formation only forces the Xuantian Treasure Mirror to execute certain commands. To truly and completely control the Xuantian Treasure Mirror…”

“Hmph, I’m afraid no one in the world can do that except the Xuantian King!”

“However, being so tightly controlled, the Xuantian Treasure Mirror is naturally unwilling. As the constraints deepen step by step, we can try to make contact with it. We can cooperate with it in reverse, helping it resolve its crisis. The price will be its assistance in finding the Xuantian King.”

“Of course, if it is unwilling…”

Mo Rubin’s eyes flickered: “Then we might as well take the Xuantian Spirit-Sealing a step further.”

Li Fan interrupted Mo Rubin’s words: “The Xuantian Treasure Mirror’s attitude is unclear. I’m afraid it won’t be too enthusiastic about finding the Xuantian King and might even obstruct us…”

Mo Rubin smiled: “Brother Xingwang, you forget that the Xuantian Treasure Mirror was refined by the Xuantian King and has been imbued with the Way of Xuantian. It cannot speak falsehoods and must abide by its word.”

Li Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly: “Is that so…”

His expression grew dazed, as if signs of memory loss were surfacing again.

Seeing this, Mo Rubin quickly changed the subject: “So, what Brother Xingwang needs to do now is to work with me from the inside and outside, gradually increasing my prestige.”

“Gain the trust of most of the Dharma Transmitters, so we can continue to push forward the Xuantian Spirit-Sealing .”

“As for your Divine Descent Body, within the next half month, expand it as quickly as possible. Once panic is stirred, I will make my move. Then, you can cooperate with me and put on a show. At that time, destroy the vast majority of the Divine Descent Bodies, leaving only a portion as a backup.”

Mo Rubin instructed.

Li Fan nodded repeatedly, immediately agreeing.

“By the way, your condition…” Mo Rubin’s eyes showed a hint of concern.

“No matter. For truly important matters, I have my own way of keeping records.”

As he spoke, the Faceless True Immortal Statue appeared in the sky again.

Li Fan gazed at the statue, closing his eyes in deep thought.

A faint golden light reappeared, enveloping the statue entirely.

Then Li Fan opened his eyes and dispersed the statue.

“This is the only way.”

Li Fan said faintly.

Mo Rubin seemed thoughtful but did not continue discussing the topic.

“Our plan is nearly foolproof. The only thing to worry about…”

Mo Rubin paused, then said: “Is that Dharma Transmitter [Jiang].”

His face displayed a rare expression of solemnity.

“If there is anyone in the current Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance who can truly shoulder the burden of reviving the Immortal Alliance, it is none other than this person.”

“Dharma Transmitter Jiang…”

“He truly has some of the Xuantian King’s former demeanor.”

Mo Rubin gave the other party an extremely high evaluation.

“Dharma Transmitter Jiang…” Li Fan’s heart stirred, but he did not press further.

Instead, he pretended to be completely unconcerned.

“With you in charge, I’m very confident. I just need to cooperate with you from the shadows.”

Mo Rubin nodded: “That’s how it should be.”
