Chapter 403: 350: Substantial Harvest; The Strong Who Never Died!

“Yes!”

Pei Xuanjing chose to inherit without hesitation.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, feeling the strength of his body at this moment, a satisfied smile surfaced at the corner of his mouth.

“However, I didn’t expect this life simulation to end like this.” Pei Xuanjing thought to himself.

In this life simulation, he summoned the heavenly gate with a sword at his last confrontation with Empress Wu, which consequently allowed his dao of Qi refinement to step into the Heavenly Realm, also known as the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm.

Although Pei Xuanjing cultivated three ways simultaneously, the Dao of Qi refinement progressed too quickly, while the Way of Essence Refinement and Spirit Refinement were just at the Heavenly Rank, which is the perfected Mortal Realm, so the added combat power was limited.

Empress Wu, although she only cultivated the Dao of Qi refinement, she mastered three ultimate arts: Emperor, Demon, and Sacred. Her power was far superior to others.

Inside the heavenly gate, Pei Xuanjing had another fierce battle with Empress Wu. They fought for an unknown amount of time, but they were always evenly matched and it was hard to declare a winner.

Finally, a light curtain fell, separating their fight, making it impossible for them to strike at each other. Then Pei Xuanjing entered a mysterious realm, as if the principles of heaven and earth were laid out before his eyes.

Upon waking up, he found that his life simulation had inexplicably ended.

“However, the gains from this round far exceeded my expectations.” He exclaimed quietly.

Initially, his Dao of Qi Refinement had stepped into the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm with the aid of the Door of Celestial. But the Way of Essence Refinement and Spirit Refinement remained in the first level of the Spirit Realm.

However, that last retreat into a state of transcendent meditation to perceive the laws of heaven and earth allowed him to inadvertently condense his twelfth energy core, pushing his physical body into the Second Layer of the Spirit Realm. Also, his Yin Spirit refined itself once more. After passing through another thunder tribulation, he would step into the Second Layer of the Spirit Realm.

“Outsider!” Pei Xuanjing reminisced about this life simulation, specifically the word spoken by Empress Wu during their last encounter.

Despite Pei Xuanjing’s repeated probes in their subsequent encounters, Empress Wu refused to reveal any information. However, her resolute attitude made it clear to Pei Xuanjing that Empress Wu had definitely met ‘outsiders’ like him before.

He speculated that since reaching a certain limit in the World of Myriad Manifestations allows one to break through the void, transform into a celestial being, and ascend, this indicated that once power reaches a certain limit, one might be able to break free of the bonds of the original world, leave this world, and go to another one.

So, if there are people in worlds where the power limit is lower than the Myriad Manifestations Realm who have reached the limit of their world, can they ascend into the World of Myriad Manifestations?

Those who enter the Myriad Manifestations Realm, wouldn’t they be considered outsiders to this realm as well?

“And perhaps Empress Wu is not ordinary. Knowing so much and confidently declaring that Li Xing of the Martial Generation is fated raises my suspicion. If it hadn’t been for my appearance messing everything up, the conclusion might have indeed progressed as smoothly as fate.” Pei Xuanjing contemplated.

In fact, his speculation enlightened him on a matter which had troubled him for a long time.

The information Pei Xuanjing found in the Page of the Netherworld’s Book stated that before the Tang Dynasty, Heaven and Earth weren’t silent, the Daming World was still in a cultivation golden age. Countless powerful and ancient cultivators coexisted in the world, and there were countless strong beings residing in this world.

These mighty beings possessed divine skills such as moving mountains and seas and travelling through clouds and mists. They could travel from the North Sea to the Southern Wastes in a single day, traverse the limitless azure skies and the yellow springs. They had incredibly long lives and the ability to alter the world.

However, they were still constrained by the limitation of their status as mortals. The Sword of Mortality, the fear of their finite lives, was always hanging over their heads, causing constant fear.

In the end, for the pursuit of Becoming Immortal and truly living forever, they launched a great war that caused rivers to dry up and mountains to collapse. Eventually, even Heaven and Earth shattered and could no longer sustain them.

“I originally conjectured that some powerful old cultivators might have survived in those remaining Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands, barely surviving, awaiting the right opportunity.” A gleam flashed in Pei Xuanjing’s deep eyes as he spoke solemnly: “Perhaps, there’s more to it. Since this world is no longer worth living in for them, those mighty cultivators might have the ability to leave and seek a world suitable for their existence.”

However!

Pei Xuanjing had a concern: those people had to leave because of the world’s silence and Daming World was no longer suitable for their existence. Now that the world has revived, would those people come back?

This is crucial!

“In the golden age of cultivation, ordinary Martial Artists in the Mortal Realm were not considered cultivators. Only those who stepped into the Spirit Realm were worthy of being called cultivators. That implies those who can leave and return are definitely not weak. I’m afraid that there are not many in the Daming martial world who can resist!”

Moreover, there was something else worrying Pei Xuanjing.

After putting in so much effort and colluding with various forces of the Taoist School, he had only managed to seize a part of the imperial court’s power, made the emperor his named disciple, and broke the shackles of Heaven and Earth to establish an earthly imperial court.

If those people returned, his plans would undoubtedly be disrupted.

Those major powers that hadn’t gained any benefits were only submissive under the joint suppression of him and the Taoist School because they didn’t have the strength to confront him, not because they were willing to yield willingly.

Especially those major powers with ancient heritage, if they colluded with the returning beings, their combined external and internal offensive would create great trouble for him and could possibly destroy his plans.

He must be on his guard!

Would those people really return?

Although it was just a guess, Pei Xuanjing felt strangely confident in his own hunch.

Considering the information from the Page of the Netherworld’s Book, how powerful and terrifying those people were, Pei Xuanjing did not believe that they would have all passed away.

Therefore, he would rather believe that those people would return, as it’s always better to believe you’re at risk when in actual fact, you’re not.

Heaven and Earth have begun to revive, and the strengths of the mighty beings they can accommodate are getting higher and higher. Therefore, when those people return, it’s certain that the world’s situation will once again be reshaped. This is beyond doubt.

And with the Daming Empire now controlling the situation in the Daming World, Pei Xuanjing and his allies who have gained a lot will necessarily become the vanguard faced with these people.

A clash and conflict is inevitable!
