Chapter 607: Chapter 579: Desire to Seize the Immature Cave Heaven

The term “world” might not be absolutely apt here.

A more fitting description would be “Small World” or “Cave Heaven”, a subordinate existence.

Undoubtedly, the newborn Great Five Elements Cave Heaven took form here.

“The gateway of the mysterious, is the root of Heaven and Earth,” Li Fan murmured to himself.

In the canon of the Xuanhuang World, similar sayings were passed down.

Heaven and Earth foster all beings.

But where did Heaven and Earth come from?

The community of cultivators is not without those filled with an explorative spirit.

Apart from those who have been mentioned before, there are cultivators who are constantly trying to reestablish contact with other Immortal Cultivation Worlds besides the Xuanhuang World.

There is also a group of cultivators who are devoted to studying the birth of Heaven and Earth and the origin of living beings.

Li Fan had read some related books before.

These cultivators believe that Heaven and Earth are like humans, constantly growing and evolving.

The initial Xuanhuang World probably just existed like a miniature Cave Heaven.

It only evolved into its present form after unimaginably long eons.

And those miniature Cave Heavens could have been created out of thin air by great cultivators or ancient True Immortals, or they could have been naturally self-evolved from the Void.

As for what kind of broad existence the “space-time” they are in, the cultivators are still uncertain.

But without a doubt, the Xuanhuang World is just an insignificant part of the ocean-like endless space-time.

Even if not many cultivators care about this fact, it cannot change the essence of its existence.

In the endless space-time, cultivators call what evolves into the prototype of the world the [Root of Heaven and Earth].

It is the origin of the world, the convergence of laws, and the beginning of creation.

It only exists in theory and no one has been fortunate enough to see it.

Unexpectedly, Li Fan, after gathering information through several reincarnations and coupled with his own indomitable will, finally arrived here.

Even though the newly formed laws contained here are still too arcane for the current Li Fan to understand.

Still, he couldn’t help but be moved by the feeling of “hearing the truth in the morning, death at night is acceptable.”

The colliding colorful particles reveal various scenes.

And the vertical and horizontal lines that spread across the entire space, like a giant loom, weave the birth of the “world”.

Enthralled by the splendid scenery for a long while, Li Fan reluctantly returned to his senses.

Although after a deep investigation, it seems as if nothing was gained, like carrying water in a bamboo basket.

Nevertheless, his entire spirit seemed to have been soaked in hot water, indescribably comfortable, and had undergone an indescribable sublimation.

Pleased, Li Fan did not forget his goal.

“Capture the essence of Heaven and Earth to form the Nascent Soul.”

Li Fan’s eyes flickered.

At that moment, he did entertain the idea of “plundering this [Root of Heaven and Earth] and transforming it into his own Nascent Soul.”

If he could do so, coupled with the Tao Foundation he has already partially built with [Real], he should be able to change his own Cave Heaven Domain at will, just like a Foundation Establishment Strange Object.

Dragon, Volcano, Eye of Law…

As long as he had mastered the specific information, he could evolve it in an instant.

Regrettably…

“The foundation is too shallow. To describe it as a snake swallowing an elephant would be an understatement, it’s more like an ant eating an elephant.” Li Fan said with a hint of self-mockery.

Just by observing for a little while, Li Fan negated his suicidal thought.

An ant attempting to eat an elephant is simply seeking death.

Perhaps in a long time, when Li Fan, who has achieved the Unity Realm and has a profound understanding of the law of Heaven and Earth.

He can come back here, in the Golden Core Realm. Only then he might have a slight chance of plundering it.

As for now…

Better to be practical, and first set his sights on the [Great Five Elements Cave Heaven].

Having stayed here for a while, Li Fan spotted some clues.

Perhaps because the original Five Elements Cave Heaven was forcibly relocated, the root of the Heaven and Earth was stimulated.

In the interwoven threads, it was reweaving a new Cave Heaven.

“In that case, I just need to wait patiently.”

“The newly born Cave Heaven is weak and much easier to subdue.”

“And there’s no need to worry about the strength of the Cave Heaven affecting my own actual combat power after advancing. The Five Elements Cave Heaven, with all five elements, being self-contained. It is constantly evolving.”

Li Fan had an idea in mind and couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

He didn’t care what would happen in the outside world, he was simply immersed in observing the process of the birth of a new Cave Heaven.

Originally, Li Fan thought that just as a human birth requires ten months of gestation.

The birth of a Cave Heaven should be many times more difficult.

However, it’s clearly an error to try to speculate about Heaven and Earth using a human perspective.

The formation speed of the new Five Elements Great Cave Heaven far exceeded Li Fan’s imagination.

The frequency of particle collisions is increasing.

It’s as if bursts of fireworks were exploding before Li Fan’s eyes.

Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth…

Li Fan began to sense the birth of five types of energy fluctuations in this space.

However, they were all restrained by themselves and did not run around aimlessly.

Li Fan’s eyes could not see the actual scene of the birth of a Cave Heaven.

He could only rely on the changes in energy within the [Root of Heaven and Earth] to indirectly perceive it.

As the prototype of the Five Elements Cave Heaven was about to be born, Li Fan couldn’t help feeling a bit excited.

But at this moment, he found that the lines that constituted his body were beginning to collapse towards the outside world.

Li Fan guessed that perhaps the energy loss of the Root of Heaven and Earth due to the “weaving” of the Five Elements Cave Heaven, it was trying to absorb everything it could from the external world to replenish itself.

As a result, Li Fan, the invading foreign body, became the first target.

Should he stay here and directly devour the Five Elements Cave Heaven, advancing to the Nascent Soul Realm?

Or should he leave the Root of Heaven and Earth first, wait for the Five Elements Cave Heaven to be fully formed and then appear in the void of the Sky-spirit State before devouring it?

Li Fan was inevitably a bit hesitant in his heart.

But he soon made up his mind.

Even though there is the risk of being disassembled here, at least there are no outsiders interfering.

In the vicinity of the Void in the Sky-spirit State, however, there are cultivators from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals patrolling.

No matter how lax they are, the fluctuations caused by the advancement from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul Transformation Realm would certainly not escape their notice.

By then, even if Li Fan were extremely articulate, he would probably not be able to deceive them.

“It’s worth trying.”

“If by any chance I really fail, I can always come back next time.”

Thus, Li Fan stopped resisting and allowed the space to absorb the threads of his body.

Just like a ball of thread being continuously drawn out into thin threads, Li Fan’s body was shrinking at a visible speed.

But he was not afraid at all, on the contrary, he took advantage of this absorbing force to fly towards the position of the newborn Five Elements Cave Heaven.

Above the [Root of Heaven and Earth].

Five distinct spheres of light were gathering.

From the interweaving threads below, nodes keep exploding, making the Five Elements light group more clear and stable.

During this process, Li Fan, with half of his body left, arrived before the light group.
