Chapter 1117: Immortal Power Transforms into Emptiness

## Chapter 1127: Immortal Power Turns to Nothingness

The simulation has ended.

You may choose one of the following options to keep:1. An item you possessed in this simulation.2. Your cultivation realm from this simulation.3. The simulated memories of someone closely related to you in this simulation. These memories can be passed on to that person.4. Forgo the above choices to accelerate the recharging process.

The "Reality Restoration" prompt truly appeared before Li Fan's "eyes," but at the moment, he had no mind to make a choice. Instead, he was focused on the changes occurring within himself.

Just as before, when he came into contact with the Immortal Ruin's immortal power, he still felt an intense hunger even after using Reality Restoration. This time, under the illumination of the Faceless True Immortal's brilliant immortal power, Li Fan, who had restored reality in a sorry state, was still unable to completely shake off the True Immortal's power after just one restoration.

"The side effect from the Immortal Ruin's immortal was an insatiable hunger, a desire to devour everything around me. And the Faceless True Immortal…"

Li Fan carefully felt his face. It felt as if a layer of skin had covered it, obscuring all his features. Only his sense of touch remained. Although his divine sense aided his perception and didn't affect his normal movements or daily life, it still sent a slight chill down Li Fan's spine.

"Not only has my face disappeared, but also…"

Li Fan 'looked' at his body with his divine sense. It occasionally appeared to have a faint transparency, like a phantom.

"My very existence is also fading."

He had just returned to Anchor Point Year 1, and Reality Restoration was still recharging. If he died now, he would be truly dead, with no chance of returning.

Facing such a desperate situation, Li Fan did not panic. Instead, he thought rapidly and calmly. His previous experience of completely diluting the effects of the Immortal Ruin's immortal power through multiple Reality Restorations made Li Fan realize that the influence imposed on him by the Faceless True Immortal could likely also be resolved through multiple restorations. This didn't mean that Reality Restoration's capabilities were becoming strained against a True Immortal. Rather, it indicated that Li Fan himself was simply too weak.

However, several critical issues now lay before Li Fan.

"First, Reality Restoration needs to recharge. Before that happens, if I don't do something, I might not last long enough."

"Second, under the influence of the Faceless True Immortal's brilliant immortal power, I've transformed into this state. Compared to my previous life as a True Immortal's envoy, His influence on me now is even deeper. This means…"

"From the very beginning of this life, I have already fallen into the True Immortal's net. Based on my last life's final experience, even if I were to cause immense change in the Xuanhuang Realm, it might not necessarily attract the Faceless True Immortal's attention. But if I activate Reality Restoration, it will inevitably draw His presence."

Li Fan walked out of the wooden hut on the mountaintop and emerged onto the boundless sea of clouds. Watching the red sun rise on the horizon, Li Fan felt no warmth from its light. Instead, a faint chill uncontrollably emerged in his heart.

Li Fan sat quietly on the cliff edge, thinking deeply. At the same time, he seemed to be waiting for something. It wasn't until midday, after a full half-day had passed, that Da Xuan Jie Li Mountain remained calm and peaceful. No incidents occurred.

Only then did Li Fan let out a long breath, a feeling of having escaped disaster washing over him.

"The Faceless True Immortal did not come."

He stood up and dusted himself off. Feeling his body becoming increasingly ethereal, Li Fan looked at the constantly flashing Reality Restoration prompt on the light screen before his "eyes." He still made no choice, temporarily ignoring it.

Returning to the wooden hut on the mountaintop, he lay on the bed and mused, "What is the true nature of Reality Restoration?"

"When the real acts as false, the false is also real."

"As for me, an insect that appeared without warning, suddenly emerging within the True Immortal's net, the Faceless True Immortal chose to pay no heed. This either means He cannot perceive the specific circumstances within the minor world of the Xuanhuang Realm. Or…"

"Before this, the world didn't exist. The moment I returned, time began to flow, and everything truly gained meaning. From my perspective, I suddenly appeared in the True Immortal's net due to karma from my previous life. But for that Faceless True Immortal, I already existed within His net. Therefore, there's nothing abnormal about it. This is also why He didn't descend."

Innumerable thoughts churned in Li Fan's mind.

"If it were time reversal, then the Faceless True Immortal at this current point in time should have acutely perceived the changes occurring within Him. For a True Immortal, something happening beyond His control would surely not be ignored; He would definitely pursue this anomaly, follow the traces, and come looking."

"But none of this happened."

Li Fan repeated the seven words that always accompanied Reality Restoration in his mind once more: "When the real acts as false, the false is also real."

"Turning the ethereal into the tangible, reorganizing all things. To possess such a divine object, yet find myself in such a sorry state, it truly is somewhat unreasonable." Li Fan shook his head, self-mockingly.

Ultimately, he had still underestimated the power of a True Immortal. He hadn't expected that even after activating Reality Restoration, that brilliant immortal power could still trace its origin and arrive. Moreover, it seemed that the more powerful an existence, the more sensitive it was to the power of Reality Restoration. The Faceless True Immortal's sudden outburst, His urgent arrival to suppress the Immortal Ruin's immortal power, clearly indicated that He knew something about Reality Restoration.

"The effectiveness of Reality Restoration is closely tied to my strength. Before I advance to the Longevity Realm, it's best not to provoke them." Li Fan thought to himself.

Only after making a preliminary speculative summary regarding True Immortals and Reality Restoration did Li Fan finally begin to ponder how to resolve his current predicament.

"I am currently at the Third Anchor Point. Reality Restoration is a Foundation Establishment marvel, and my cultivation is at the late Foundation Establishment stage. If I choose to inherit my cultivation from the previous life, I will instantly complete the transformation from Foundation Establishment to Nascent Soul stage."

"But I am currently within the True Immortal's net. My current inability to attract the Faceless True Immortal's attention is because my own strength is negligible. However, if a Foundation Establishment ant instantly transforms into a Nascent Soul ant, it could potentially draw His gaze…"

"Therefore, the method to resolve this life's crisis is clear: hide in the Nether Realm, and the moment I choose to inherit my previous life's cultivation, activate Reality Restoration again. This will prevent the Faceless True Immortal from reinfecting me, and simultaneously use Reality Restoration to wash away the mark He left on me. Repeat this process."

"But before that…"

Li Fan reached out, attempting to pick up a teacup placed in the wooden hut. Initially, there was no problem, but as his body became somewhat transparent, the teacup slipped from his grasp and fell directly to the ground.

"Is this the power of the Faceless True Immortal? My existence is being stripped away…"

What Li Fan first needed to resolve was to find a way to stabilize his own existence before Reality Restoration finished recharging. Otherwise, all would be lost. And judging by his current physical condition, Li Fan didn't have much time left.
