My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 538 - 510: Heaven and Earth Can Be Dual Cultivated

Chapter 538: Chapter 510: Heaven and Earth Can Be Dual Cultivated

“After sadistically killing your little lover, I’ll take my time refining you!”

“Using the Moonlight Body as the furnace, it will definitely aid in my promotion to the God Transformation Realm!”

Unveiling his true identity, Qin Shou attacked Li Fan and Sister Zhao.

Sister Zhao was merely at the Golden Core Perfection stage. Although she was a prodigy, dealing with ordinary Nascent Souls was no problem.

But facing a peerless genius like Qin Shou, she was a little inadequate.

Li Fan was even more of a liability.

And with each attack from Qin Shou, his target was always Li Fan, standing behind Sister Zhao.

Originally slightly struggling to cope, Sister Zhao had to hastily respond each time in order to protect her lover’s life.

Seeing that they were disadvantaged, they were soon to be defeated.

Sister Zhao and Li Fan were forced to use the Magic Treasure bestowed by their master, fighting while retreating into the depths of the ruins.

With the help of the mechanisms and Exotic Beasts hidden in the ruins, they managed to temporarily shake off Qin Shou.

Unable to find the pair for a while, Qin Shou actually began to set up an array outside the ruins.

He swore to capture them alive within the array.

“This is the Central Earth Fire Array. If the array is successfully activated, the two of us will certainly have no chance of escape.” A flash of determination appeared in Sister Zhao’s eyes.

“I will go out and fight him to the death later, you take the chance to run. You must return to the sect and inform the master of his true identity.”

Sister Zhao drew her sword, preparing to fly out, but suddenly noticed that the Heavenly Mechanism Compass bestowed by their master had started to shine again.

“Sister, wait! There seems to be a way!” Li Fan quickly called out.

Following the light from the Heavenly Mechanism Compass, they found a secret room in the depths of the ruins.

In the secret room, there was a set of strangely shaped bones.

They were several times larger than ordinary humans, with bones numbering in the thousands.

And each of those bones, although seemingly integrated, subtly revealed a sense of dissonance.

As if they belonged to different entities.

Next to the bones, Li Fan found a Storage Ring.

Inside, in addition to a uniquely shaped token engraved with the character for “Mystic”,

There were also several Technique manuals.

“‘The Ode to the Conjunction of Heaven and Earth’, ‘The Secret of Only I Through the Ages’…” Li Fan scanned each one, a glint of joy in his eyes.

“Look, Sister, ‘The Ode to the Conjunction of Heaven and Earth’ happens to be a rare Dual Cultivational Law. According to the description in the Technique, the first time it is cultivated by the two sides, there will be significant progress in cultivation. If we cultivate, maybe we can both breakthrough…” Li Fan was talking non-stop when he suddenly noticed that Sister Zhao’s expression was a bit grim.

“Sister Zhao, what’s wrong?” Li Fan felt a little strange and quickly asked.

“This place should be a base of the Mystic Sky Sect.” Sister Zhao stared at the large bones on the ground and said solemnly: “This person must be one of the Kings of the Mystic Sky Sect in the past.”

“Mystic Sky Sect?” Li Fan frowned, “I’ve never heard of it. So what?”

Sister Zhao patiently explained: “The Mystic Sky Sect was an evil sect that unified the world in ancient times. The leader of the church considered himself the King. They usurped Heaven’s mandate and were utterly evil. In the end, they were overthrown by a joint effort of cultivators. Although the Mystic Sky Sect has been destroyed for thousands of years, it still refuses to die.”

“Among the Immortal Dao Ten Clans, including our Great Taoist Sect, are still very wary of the Mystic Sky Sect.”

“Any remnants of the Mystic Sky Sect should be killed without mercy.”

Li Fan also understood what Sister Zhao meant, but he still didn’t care much: “The Mystic Sky Sect is the Mystic Sky Sect, the Techniques are the Techniques.”

“Are we going to evaluate good and evil, right and wrong for Techniques too?”

“We are the orthodox disciples of the Great Taoist Sect, not any remnants of the Mystic Sky Sect. In order to survive, it’s not wrong to cultivate their Techniques, right?”

Sister Zhao still had her eyebrows furrowed: “It’s not the same…”

Li Fan glanced outside at the Central Earth Fire Array, which was becoming more solid.

“No matter what, it’s better than losing our lives right now. After all, if we fall into the hands of Qin Shou, even dying might be a luxury.” Li Fan urged.

“At worst, after we get through this crisis, we can simply discard the Techniques.”

After much deliberation, the pressure from the array outside was getting heavier.

Left with no other option, Sister Zhao finally agreed with a nod.

So, the two of them started studying “The Ode to the Conjunction of Heaven and Earth” together.

Immersed in the exhilarating dual cultivation of spirit and soul, they could barely tell where one ended and the other began.

Thoughts intertwined, fully integrated, a moment surpassing millions of years.

Their breaths also resonated in sync, growing stronger by each passing moment.

Finally, with the power of dual cultivation, Sister Zhao successfully advanced to Nascent Soul.

And then, Li Fan also achieved his Golden Core successfully.

With Sister Zhao breaking through a significant realm, her fighting power made a quantum leap instantly.

Seizing the moment when the array technique was just about to take shape, they broke through the formation and fought against Qin Shou.

Setting up arrays for consecutive days had depleted much of their mental energy.

Seeing that both Li Fan and Sister Zhao had broken through, his plot was about to fail, Qin Shou was shocked and in turmoil.

Having lost his bearings, he began to fumble in the face of Sister Zhao’s lethal attacks.

Moreover, the intermittent secret transmissions from Li Fan further infuriated him, causing him to lose his rationale.

“Brother Qin, aren’t you curious as to how we managed to achieve such quick breakthroughs together?”

“Hahaha, it’s all thanks to you!”

“At the brink of life and death, we found a set of dual cultivation techniques within the relics.”

“You do understand what the dual cultivation techniques mean, don’t you, Brother Qin?”

“Tsk tsk tsk…”

“If it weren’t for you making such a fuss, God knows when I would’ve had the chance to fulfill my ambition!”

Li Fan kept provoking Qin Shou with his words.

At the same time, he continuously launched attacks exploiting Qin Shou’s mental instability.

With the perfect cooperation between the two, it was unbearable for Qin Shou to watch.

“You two … deserve to die!”

Putting everything aside, Qin Shou launched a desperate fight-to-the-death attack on both.

Sister Zhao and Li Fan joined forces, but for a time, they too found it tough to counter.

However, crazy attacks couldn’t last forever.

Eventually, they adjusted to Qin Shou’s attacking rhythm, and in return, Qin Shou found himself at a disadvantage.

During the fierce battle, Qin Shou despairingly discovered he was critically injured.

Escaping now was beyond the realm of possibility.

“Bloody couple! I curse you!”

Under Qin Shou’s malevolent gaze, Sister Zhao severed his head with a single blow.

Qin Shou died with glaring eyes, full of resentment.

Seeing their arch-rival dead, Li Fan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“I meant to infuriate him deliberately, forgive me if my words offended you,” Li Fan said to Sister Zhao with an apologetic tone.

“Now that we’re virtually a married couple, would any offence matter?” Sister Zhao squinted and retorted.

Slapping his forehead, a dumbfounded Li Fan remarked, “How silly of me!”

They returned back to the secret room in the relics after cleaning up the remains.

Lying spent in Sister Zhao’s arms, Li Fan slept soundly.

When they woke up, they didn’t return to the sect right away.

After some hesitation, they decided to abandon “The Ode to the Conjunction of Heaven and Earth”.

There were many other dual cultivation methods available; they didn’t necessarily have to stick to this one.

However, after trying a few, they looked at each other, their faces changing slightly.
