My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 540 - 512: Immortal Desires to Sever Law Transmission

Chapter 540: Chapter 512: Immortal Desires to Sever Law Transmission

At first, the elders in the sect looked down on the “new method” as a shortcut, a lesser way, unworthy of their attention.

But as some disciples began to secretly practice it, their progress sped up dramatically.

Instances of disciples surpassing their masters in cultivation in an incredibly short time started to occur.

Thus, the situation began to change.

Witnessing the surge in the cultivation level of their disciples, the elders of the Great Taoist Sect began to feel uneasy.

Although the present Great Taoist Sect still values hierarchies and seniority,

the eternal law of the Immortal Cultivation World – the law of the jungle, is difficult to change.

In the past, the elders retained their control over the sect’s power through their own cultivation and status.

But they are not yet old, and yet their own cultivation levels are being caught up and even surpassed by their disciples.

Seeing their ruling position being challenged, how could they remain indifferent?

So, the senior elders divided into two factions.

One faction thought, while the “new method” allowed for quick cultivation, it was not the orthodox path. This practice could cause irreversible damage to Heaven and Earth in the long run and should be completely forbidden.

But another faction argued that Heaven and Earth are vast and inexhaustible. Although cultivators excessively exploit them during their lifetime for cultivation, not everyone can reach the Longevity Realm. Once they perish, everything they have consumed will return to Heaven and Earth.

Therefore, there was no need to worry about this.

Now the “new method” is widespread, and countless rogue cultivators have risen because of it.

Disciples of other sects have also greatly increased their strength due to their cultivation of this method.

But if the Great Taoist Sect doesn’t adopt the new method, they will surely fall behind others.

Both sides have convincing arguments, and neither is willing to yield to the other. However, as the supporters of the new method secretly practiced it and their long-stagnant strength got a boost, they gradually gained the upper hand in this power struggle.

…

When Li Fan and Sister Zhao came out of seclusion, they encountered this chaotic situation.

Contrary to the Logic of Heaven and Earth?” Sister Zhao muttered, a strange light flickering in her eyes.

As for Li Fan, for some unknown reason, while desiring the new method, he also felt an inexplicable fear,

It seems to contain a catastrophic disaster?

“No matter what, our cultivation of ‘The Ode to the Conjunction of Heaven and Earth’ shouldn’t have been detected by now,” he remarked.

“Sister, what do you make of this so-called ‘new method’?”

Sister Zhao chuckled lightly, “It’s just a convenient method. No matter how fast it is, can it be quicker than our Dual Cultivation Method?”

“But it should serve well as a smokescreen.”

Li Fan pondered for a while, then nodded in agreement.

So the two of them also began to practice the new method outwardly, but continuously used the dual cultivation power to seize this rare opportunity to enhance their own realms.

Twenty years passed in a blink.

The controversy between the old and the new method became increasingly intense.

Not only was there dispute within the sect, but also the rogue cultivators outside the sect formed the [Coalition of the Myriad Immortals] in an attempt to challenge the authority of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans.

It was one thing for the sect’s members to struggle for power, but outsiders wanting to share in the spoils was another matter.

In order to maintain their own rule, the Immortal Dao Ten Clans, known for being a united front but in actuality full of intrigue, once again joined forces several years later.

They formed an allied army to suppress the Coalition of the Myriad Immortals.

At first, they thought that these rogue cultivators with no deep foundations would soon be defeated under the combined forces of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans.

But the development of the matter was somewhat unexpected.

In the beginning, in the face of the onslaught from the Ten Sects, the so-called Coalition of the Myriad Immortals suffered a direct defeat, with heavy casualties.

But their numbers were simply too large.

Even if one batch was wiped out, a new batch of cultivators would quickly emerge.

Moreover, in every battle, there were cultivators from the Coalition of the Myriad Immortals who managed to escape by a stroke of luck.

After surviving many bloody battles, the strength of these cultivators also underwent a transformation. Even the prodigies of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans found it more and more difficult to kill these people.

The mortal world is vast and has countless people. And these mortals, with the support of the new method, could quickly be transformed into a viable force for the Coalition of the Myriad Immortals.

But on the side of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans with their proud dignity of the major sects, they were extremely strict in selecting disciples.

Once there were casualties, it often took several years, even more than a decade, to replenish their numbers.

With the passage of time, the differences in the strength between the two sides gradually decreased.

The fight fell into a stalemate.

Moreover, with the differences in the casualty situations of each sect, the originally united Immortal Sect Alliance also gradually showed disagreements within.

Some sects even intentionally avoided fighting in order to preserve their strength.

Everyone knew that with things reaching this point, the rise of the Coalition of the Myriad Immortals was unstoppable.

But the leaders of Immortal Dao Ten Clans were still unwilling to give up. They wouldn’t allow the world they had finally gained control over to be taken by these mortals who they had never considered to be their equals.

Thus, a plan to behead the enemy’s leader was born.

The rapid rise of the Coalition of the Myriad Immortals could largely be attributed to the so-called “Dharma Transmitters”.

And these Dharma Transmitters were absolutely loyal to the Dharma Transmission Immortal Elders.

If they could kill the Dharma Transmission Immortal Elder, the Coalition of the Myriad Immortals would lose their spiritual leader and would certainly collapse on its own.

The Dharma Transmission person was only at the Unity-Path stage, while there were many Immortal Experts among the Immortal Dao Ten Clans.

If they could find him and execute [The Beheading Plan],

the stalemate could be resolved.

Immortal Dao Ten Clans made an agreement, each sent out strong individuals from their sect to form teams, vowing to assassinate Dharma Transmission Immortal Elder.

But because of the Dharma Transmission person’s elusive nature,

Getting his whereabouts was a challenge. The Immortal Dao Ten Clans sent out the elite disciples from within their sect to travel around the world to gather information.

Li Fan and Sister Zhao were naturally among them.

This search lasted more than twenty years.

With the help of dual cultivation, Sister Zhao had successfully advanced to the God Transformation Realm by now.

While Li Fan, lagging slightly behind, had also broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

On their journey, they had traveled to various places in the Xuanhuang World and killed countless rogue cultivators.

But they had never found any trace of Dharma Transmission.

“Sister, what do you think of Dharma Transmission?” Li Fan asked.

“Dharma Transmission Immortal Elder…” After a moment’s consideration, Sister Zhao shook her head slightly.

“I don’t know.”

Li Fan looked stunned, only to hear Sister Zhao say, “With the power of one person, he overturned the order of the Immortal Cultivation World. There had never been such a monstrous person in the history of the Xuanhuang World.”

“But all the information in hand about him comes from rumors. His origins, the reasons for his actions, all remain a mystery.”

“I’m afraid we’ll only get the answer once we meet him in person.”

“I wonder how our fellow disciples are doing. I wonder if any of them have made a breakthrough.”

…

Just as the two of them were chatting, they suddenly received a message from their sect.

After reading it, their faces became incredibly animated.

It turned out that the [The Beheading Plan], which had been ongoing for over twenty years without any progress, had actually been cancelled.

Li Fan and Sister Zhao looked at each other, knowing that a major event must have occurred.
