The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 755: Chapter 705: Life Simulation 1

“What a terrifying world, where a person’s fate is decided the moment they are born. Those without a Spiritual Root are doomed to remain as mere fuels for the fire, stepping-stones for others, with no hope of rising above.” A look of scorn appeared at the corner of Pei Xuanjing’s mouth.

He reflected on the many things he had experienced in this simulated life, and felt that the world was truly laughable and pitiful.

Everything was destined at the moment of birth, without a Spiritual Root one would have nothing, without a Spiritual Root, not even an opportunity to strive existed, this was indeed laughable and pitiful.

Even in the world where Pei Xuanjing had once projected himself, a realm where members of the human race and the Demon Race confronted each other, the legacy of martial arts and cultivation was even more focused on the enhancement of bloodlines. But for ordinary mortals, their journey was not blocked entirely. As long as they could progress step by step through cultivation, they still held the possibility of altering their fates.

“The immortal sects tend to their flock, cultivators consider themselves superior, although of mortal origin, they regard mortals as aliens, treating them like grasshoppers and cattle. This inevitably means that when demons wreak havoc, these immortal sects, upon realizing the cost outweighs the gain and could be harmful to themselves, will undoubtedly choose to compromise; this is an inevitable outcome.” Pei Xuanjing shook his head in disdain.

All cultivators from the immortal sects descended from ordinary mortals, they were initially members of the human race possessing great strength. But the self-highly regarded individuals, due to their strength, forget their origins and consider ordinary mortals as beneath them, not realizing they belong to the same race.

The so-called tending to all beings indicates their attitude.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The Immortal Path transcends but does not betray or forget its origin. Normally they are worshipped by all beings, and thus, when difficult times arise, they should stand up and fight.

“The ‘I’ of this Heaven and Earth universe was limited by my own cognition. Although dissatisfied with the state of the immortal sect tending to all beings and viewing all beings as worthless, I ultimately put up with it due to my own limitations of birth and standing.” Thought Pei Xuanjing.

As for the choice made by his self in this life simulator, he also found it natural. After all, due to limitations of his own origin, even if he was dissatisfied with reality, the thought of truly betraying and overthrowing his own class was difficult.

“But what are these demons exactly? Why did they suddenly break out and run rampant?” Pei Xuanjing wondered.

According to the information he had received, although traces of demons circulated in this world, these demons were not strong. They didn’t pose much of a problem to the original immortal sects, suppressing and clearing them was easy. They still existed because the immortal sects wanted to leave these demons to train future disciples.

More importantly, by nurturing these threats, the mortal world held the immortal sects in even higher regard.

The outbreak of demons this time around could be due to these immortal sects failing to cultivate their demon cultivations properly, culminating in a major disaster.

Apart from these matters, what interested Pei Xuanjing the most was the ancient book “The Art of War”.

This skill, in the end, allowed his simulated self to overcome the powerful and slay the demons, which was a testament to the power of this skill.

Even though he had yet to truly witness the power of this skill, according to Pei Xuanjing’s speculation, this skill should be related to the way of Incense Faith and Divine Tao Cultivation. Therefore, if possible, he certainly wanted to acquire it.

[Simulation termination: You can choose the following options.]

[Option one: Gain all the realm insights and lifelong knowledge at the end of this simulated life.]

[Option two: Project and possess once more, once again experience and dominate this life.]

This choice, for Pei Xuanjing, he would naturally choose to project and possess again in this simulated life.

After all, his strength in this simulated life experience was not powerful, and even obtaining all the realm insights wouldn’t be of much value to him.

If Pei Xuanjing chose the first reward, perhaps the most significant gain would be the “Art of War”. No matter how precious this skill was, it was probably not worth 20 million Taoyun value!

So, only by conducting a projected possession simulation to achieve enough gain, otherwise his 20 million Taoyun value would be wasted.

[Life Simulation – Projected possession mode activated:]

[There are fifty paths in the Great Tao, forty-nine in the Forty-Nine Heavenly Paths, fleeing one of them! Therefore, all things in the world have a glimpse of vitality!]

There’s no denying that the life simulator was indeed powerful. Even though Pei Xuanjing already stood at the pinnacle of Heaven and Earth, he could still not sense a single thread, and could not detect its operational trajectory.

In an instant, Pei Xuanjing’s surroundings fell silent as if even time had come to a standstill.

At this moment, his spiritual consciousness was like Chaos itself, and then with a loud bang, Heaven and Earth separated.

[Projected possession simulation begins: Please note, the host, in the projection simulation, if you die, you will never be able to project again.]

One year-old: Pei Xuanjing was born in this universe, descended into the royal family. Although he did not possess much strength due to his young age, his wisdom was not diminished in the slightest.

Pei Xuanjing, using his spiritual force, sensed this world and also the status of his own body.

He was extremely curious about the so-called ‘Spiritual Root’ credential of the cultivators in this world. Therefore his spiritual force was exploring everything about himself, trying to see if this Spiritual Root really descended at birth and if it could be easily changed.

With his formidable spiritual force scanning his body, Pei Xuanjing didn’t feel anything unusual, compared to what he knew about humans there was no anomaly. All he clearly sensed was that his body had a strong affinity for the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, or ‘spiritual energy’ of this world. Even if he didn’t consciously guide it, he could still feel the spiritual energy of this world nourishing his body.

Six years-old: It had been six years since Pei Xuanjing came to this world. In these six years, because his body couldn’t bear his formidable spiritual force, he often fell into a slumber. Nevertheless, even with these limited active periods, Pei Xuanjing’s physical conditioning far exceeded ordinary people, and he had basically figured out the mystery of the so-called Spiritual Root of this world.

The root, that’s the source. The so-called Spiritual Root is not an actual entity growing in a person’s body. The Spiritual Root is invisible and formless, representing the recognition and favor of Heaven and Earth, and is the foundation of cultivation.
