The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings - Chapter 758

Chapter 758: Chapter 708 Life Simulation – Taboo

As the ruler safeguarding one region, no one could defy the will of Pei Xuanjing. In fact, many aspired to curry favor with him, hoping to serve under his command.

Yet in the past, although Pei Xuanjing preserved the region, he was indifferent to worldly desires, leaving those cultivators who wished to establish relationships with him helpless.

However, this time when the demons ran rampant, Pei Xuanjing, as the protector, ordered the tracing of the demon’s whereabouts. This naturally received unanimous support—it was a win-win situation for them. After all, except for fulfilling Pei Xuanjing’s requirements, capturing and clearing out the demons were their due responsibilities.

When these cultivators took action, they quickly obtained traces of the demons. Pei Xuanjing, having received this information, immediately set out. According to his previous life simulation experience, the power of this demon should not be underestimated—after all, it even gravely injured his simulated self. In his absence, none would be a match for this demon.

Once Pei Xuanjing made his move, the outcome was naturally assured. After all, with his current strength, apart from a few top-notch experts from various Immortal Sects that he had to be wary of, no other cultivators or beings would be able to hinder him.

These demons might become even more powerful in dozens of years, but for now, they could not resist Pei Xuanjing.

After suppressing this demon, Pei Xuanjing rewarded those who participated and then left with the demon, choosing to research it.

At the age of 42: Whether a mortal or an Immortal Sect Disciple, everyone in this world harbored intense animosity towards demons. Therefore, everyone opted to either imprison the captured demons within the Demon Suppression Tower or immediately execute them.

Utilizing the power of this region, Pei Xuanjing built a Demon Suppression Tower and imprisoned the captured demon inside it, personally guarding it.

Publicly, Pei Xuanjing claimed he was refining the demon, but in reality, he was studying the demons behind closed doors.

Maybe it was because the demon’s level was quite low, or that there were too few demons or he lacked enough samples, Pei Xuanjing spent a year’s time but achieved little from his research on the demons.

However, Pei Xuanjing did have one finding—his cultivation skill, ‘Enthroning Gods,’ had a significant restraining effect on the demons.

To verify this guess, Pei Xuanjing began actively searching for and capturing demons.

At the age of 53: Over a decade, Pei Xuanjing continuously captured demons, filling the Demon Suppression Tower with his research samples.

In this decade, Pei Xuanjing’s reputation skyrocketed within the Immortal Sect due to his constant capturing of demons. He was praised by countless people and hailed as a standout figure of the younger generation.

However, none of this interested Pei Xuanjing. He wasn’t doing this for fame—for him, such prestige held no meaning. He captured these demons to fill the Demon Suppression Tower to further his research and his cultivation.

After ten years, he consistently used these demons for his research. In terms of their power, he was beginning to get a grasp of things. He found that the general cultivation of these demons was not very different from Immortal Sect Disciples. But within these demons lay a strange power in their spiritual energy, this power circulated within the demons, affecting their consciousness and causing them to lose their rationality, making them cruel, bloodthirsty, and unstable.

Pei Xuanjing had attempted to extract or expel this strange power from the demons, but unfortunately, this power seemed to have thoroughly fused with the demons and could not be forcibly separated. Once forcibly separated, the demons would completely lose control and eventually die.

For Pei Xuanjing, dealing with this strange force was quite challenging for his current realm. He had tried refining this power, but he couldn’t refine or control it.

However, Pei Xuanjing also confirmed from this that the root cause of the demons’ uncontrollable attacks stemmed from this strange power.

Although he did not fully eradicate the demon problem, his continuous suppression of the demons greatly enhanced his ‘Enthroning Gods’ skill. He had completely cultivated the fragments he held.

But that was all. Over the years, Pei Xuanjing found out that the remaining fragments of ‘Enthroning Gods’ were in other immortals sects. But, he also had no way of acquiring them at the moment.

At the age of 55: Pei Xuanjing completed his guard duty and returned to the Immortal Sect. His position as an Inner Disciple could have been further promoted. Unexpectedly, he announced his breakthrough in realm and chose to abandon his Inner Disciple status, advancing to become an elder of the Immortal Sect.

It took him more than 20 years to break through, from an Inner Disciple to becoming an Elder. His cultivation speed was unprecedented within the sect, making him the most prominent contender for the position of the next Sect Master.

After his promotion to Elder, Pei Xuanjing’s authority within the Immortal Sect grew higher. He guarded the Cultivation Methods Pavilion, continuing to explore and research the methods within, uncovering the secrets of this world. At the same time, he was looking for a way to obtain the remaining fragments of ‘Enthroning Gods’ privately.

At the age of 57: After Pei Xuanjing became an Elder, more and more people gathered around him, which was also a good thing for him. It made things more convenient for him to accomplish what he wanted to do.

In these years, not only has Pei Xuanjing perused all the methods of his Immortal Sect, but he also obtained some methods from other Immortal Sects. These methods all vary, and each of them brought Pei Xuanjing different inspirations, benefiting him immensely.

In addition, he even collected several fragments of ‘Enthroning Gods.’ With these nearly complete, all he needed were the final two essential sections.

However, nothing stays hidden forever. Pei Xuanjing’s subtle collection of ‘Enthroning Gods’ inadvertently drew the attention of many, with some of the oldest seniors in the Immortal Sect casually inquiring about Pei Xuanjing’s intentions.

Pei Xuanjing brushed it off, saying he enjoyed collecting different methods. Throughout the years, he actually did collect a variety of methods, so the elders didn’t delve deeper. They merely warned Pei Xuanjing not to gather or attempt to cultivate ‘Enthroning Gods’ as it was taboo in the Immortal Sect.
